Auction History Result 2d126 CHASE ME CHARLIE LC R20s Charlie Chaplin as The Tramp grabbed by two men in shipyard! Date Sold 11/6/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Undated (probably 1920s) Re-release Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Chase Me Charlie, the 1918 Charles Chaplin & Langford Reed comedy short anthology ("A Chaplin Jingle"; "A British version of Charlie Chaplin's funniest films --- taken from the famous Essanay-Chaplin comedies"; a compilation of excerpts from Charlie Chaplin's short films including The Tramp, Shanghaied, In the Park, The Bank, By the Sea, A Night Out, The Champion, The Woman, and His New Job) starring Charles (Charlie) Chaplin, Edna Purviance, Leo White, Ben Turpin, Chester Conklin and Bronco Billy. Note that Essanay/Perfection Pictures released this compilation of Chaplin shorts in 1918 (after he had moved to First National), and that Citation Films gave this silent comedy compilation a full scale re-release in 1959, over 40 years later! Note that this movie was produced by "Perfection Pictures". This was created in 1917 by a merger of three legendary film companies of the earlier 1910s, Essanay, Thomas A. Edison, Inc., and George Kleine. We know that Perfection Pictures produced at least a couple dozen movies between 1917 and 1925, and we suspect that they also re-released some movies from the above three studios that were made prior to 1917. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this card is undated, but we believe it to be from the 1920s (it could be from the first 1918 release, but we have seen a title card from that set that has Essanay on it and their logo, and this one is different, so we think it is more likely an early 1920s re-release). Condition: fair. There are many dot stains scattered throughout. There are tears and tiny paper loss around the edges with clear tape on the back of many tears. Learn More about condition grades
