The Village Blacksmith, the 1923 John Ford (billed as "Jack Ford") silent family relationship romantic melodrama ("A 1923 melodrama founded on Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's immortal poem"; VERY loosely based on the poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, which begins "Under a spreading chestnut tree the village smithy stands", and which countless schoolboys were forced to memorize; about a small town with a village blacksmith who has two sons, one of whom was crippled when falling from a tree, and the town squire, who hates the blacksmith, but who has a pretty daughter that loves one of the blacksmith's sons) starring Will Walling, Virginia True Boardman, Virginia Valli, Ida Mae McKenzie, and David Butler. Note that only one reel from this film still exists!

Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper items from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a one-sheet (33 years ago), a pressbook, and a scene lobby card from this movie (and NO other movie paper) until we received this title lobby card! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

Condition: very good to fine. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
