Post, Arthur Hoyt, and Michael Vavitch. 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 each still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of each still. Condition: good. The left 1" was neatly trimmed off (see above). One of the stills has diagonal creases in the middle right and a scratch in the face of the man at left. The other has many scuff marks in the lower half of the image (in both cases, Pola Negri's face is spared!). Learn More about condition grades
