Will you be among the missing?"; "One solid year in New York. 10 months in London. 6 months in Chicago. 6 months in Boston."; "A picture that will last forever."; about an elderly couple who raised many children into successful adults, but when they find themselves on hard times in their old age, their children have one excuse after another as to why they don't take better care of them) starring Mae Marsh ("in a Triumphant Return"), James Dunn, Sally Eilers ("Together Again in Over the Hill"), Edward Crandall, Claire Maynard, and James Kirkwood. Note that this was based on a very famous poem written in 1872 by Will Carleton called "Over the Hill to the Poor House". There were two silent shorts and a silent feature based on this poem. There was a 1937 movie that credits this poem as its source, and Leo McCarey's 1937 "Make Way For Tomorrow" surely took much inspiration from this plot as well!

Important Added Info: Glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Condition: fine. This glass slide is in really excellent condition, and we feel that EVERY collector would be happy to own it. It IS possible it may have a MINOR defect or defects, but nothing at all significant. But we bet many dealers would call items in this grade "mint" or "near mint"! Learn More about condition grades
