Original Vintage Theatrical Chapter #6 Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) The Diamond Master, the 1929 Jack Nelson silent diamond-counterfeiting crime serial ("Story by Jacques Futrelle") starring Louise Lorraine, Hayden Stevenson, Al Hart, Monte Montague, Louis Stern, and Walter Maly. Note that this is a lost film. If the name of the man who wrote the story this movie is based on, Jacques Futrelle, is familiar to you, it would likely be because he wrote a series of short detective stories with a hero named Professor Augustus S.F.X. Van Dusen, known as "The Thinking Machine". This series of stories predated those with similar detective heroes like Nero Wolfe by a couple of decades, but, unfortunately, Monsieur Futrelle perished on the Titanic in 1912, and his hero ended with him, which made it a double tragedy. Also note that we were unable to find a plot summary of this silent serial, which seems a shame, given the story was written by such an illustrious writer. 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. Condition: good to very good.
