Searle Dawley silent romantic comedy (about a compulsive liar, who is sarcastically nicknamed "Miss George Washington", because she cannot tell the truth; she gets in lots of trouble, but worst of all, when she says she is married, and she ends up having to spend a night at an elderly couple's house with her "husband"!) starring Marguerite Clark (in the title role), Frank Losee, Niles Welch, Florence Martin and Joseph Gleason. Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that, in the early days of movie making, when lobby cards were first made (around 1915), studios would issue sets of the cards in two sizes; the regular 11" x 14" size, and a smaller 8" x 10" size. The cards were identical in every way except for the different size. This practice continued through the early 1920s, at which point the studios abandoned the smaller lobby cards, likely because theaters either ordered 11" x 14" lobby cards or 8" x 10" stills, and did not order enough of the 8" x 10" lobby cards to justify them continuing to make them. It is possible that the bottom blank border was slightly trimmed, as the card measures 7 3/4" x 10". Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
