Otis Skinner was a noted American stage actor of the late 1800s and early 1900s, who appeared in five movies.

Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a remarkable group of around 100 guaranteed authentic mostly war posters (around 75 war posters, plus 25 others, including political ones) mostly dating from before 1900 through 1945, with 15 from after that date! These were originally acquired by an archive decades ago, and they have been in storage ever since, until they were recently consigned to us. Many of these are the sorts of posters that you can find reproductions of on the Internet, but finding guaranteed originals like these is incredibly difficult (years can go by before these are offered for sale or at auction). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase any of these more than 100 posters! Condition: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. There is a 3" tear in the left of the top border and a 1" tear in the right border, with two tiny tears above it. Otherwise, the poster is in really nice condition, especially considering it is over 100 years old! Learn More about condition grades
