Lobby Card (11" x 14") ; From the Woodhall Collection
Fine+
MGM, 1927

Posters for this lost film have always been scarce and only a single one-sheet is known from its US release. The cards are beautiful and picture Lon Chaney on almost all of them.

This unrestored lobby has toning, light spotting, tiny edge chips in the lower border, pinholes, and tiny edge tears. Strips of mounting paper tape for framing on the verso. From the Wood Hall Collection.

The film is considered one of the "holy grails" of lost cinema. Starring Lon Chaney, the "Man of a Thousand Faces," and directed by Tod Browning, who is most known for producing Dracula (1931) and Freaks (1932), the film is based on a script by Browning and depicts Chaney as a vampire (though in makeup only).

Estimate: $1,000 - 2,000
