An Original Vintage Unfolded Window Card Stage Play Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) The Bird of Paradise, the 1923 stage play production ("The fascinating story of a woman's soul"; "An appealing romance of Hawaii"; "Played for one entire year in New York"; "Written by Richard Walton Tully author of 'The Flame' and 'Omar the Tentmaker'"). Note that this play was not made into a movie in 1923, perhaps because of its risque subject matter, or perhaps because it would have been too expensive to have tropical island locations. It was made into a movie in 1932, starring Dolores Del Rio and Joel McCrea, and that movie was very risque, and helped contribute to the establishment of the Production Code.

Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this window card! Not only that, but it is the ONLY movie paper of any kind we have ever auctioned from this stage play.
