Window Card (14" x 22")
Very Fine-
Universal, 1928

This poster and others for this film are nearly nonexistent; this is the sole window card known. Four style one-sheets were produced for this film, and this card is similar to the style F one-sheet.

This window card was folded once horizontally in the center and has a theatrical playdate imprinted in the top section of the poster. A tear in the right side of the upper border area extends into the printed location of the theater. Other than this, the poster shows minor use.

Based upon Victor Hugo's classic novel, the film stars Conrad Veidt as the cruelly deformed Gwynplaine, living in the 15th century. Paul Leni directs this dark drama of cruelty, fear, and redemption. Bill Finger and Bob Kane used the Gwnplaine disfigurement as an inspiration for their famous villain, The Joker.

Estimate: $15,000 - 30,000
