An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Handbill (measures 6" x 9 1/2" [15 x 24 cm]) (Learn More) Odeon Hall, the circa 1910 handbill advertising the two movies showing at Odeon Hall. The movies are "Little Mary Sunshine" and "Caught in the Rapids". We can find no information about either of these movies. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that in the earliest days of motion pictures (at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th), movies were all quite short (usually several minutes each), and they were shown at vaudeville theaters and other kinds of shows. The advertising for these kinds of places were often "daybills", which resemble U.S. inserts in size, but were printed on one-sheet paper, and also "handbills", which were similar to later heralds (similar daybills and handbills were used to advertise circuses at that time). These handbills would rarely have any artwork, but rather would list all of the varied entertainments available at the show. They were likely passed out to people in the street, and were completely disposable, and very few of them survive! Condition: good to very good. There is a tear and tiny paper loss in the top center of the poster, and tiny paper loss in the bottom corner. Learn More about condition grades
