An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Chapter #11 (The Trap) Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) The Adventures of Ruth, the 1919 George Marshall silent adventure serial ("A Pathe Serial"; "Produced by Ruth Roland Serials, Inc.") starring Ruth Roland (in the title role), Herbert Heyes, Thomas G. Lingham, William Human, and Charles Bennett. Note that Ruth Roland was second only to Pearl White as being best remembered from silent serials of the 1910s. She started in movies in 1909, but in 1915, after the great success of White's "The Perils of Pauline" the previous year, Roland starred in her own 14 episode serial called "The Red Circle", and she went on to make six more serials for Pathe, including this one. After 1925, she only appeared in three more movies, returning to the stage where she had performed before entering movies. She passed away in 1937 from cancer, at just 45 years of age. Also, note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

The poster had paper loss in the top of the middle vertical foldline (at the bottom of the "R" of "ROLAND" and extending into the top of the "H" of "THE"). There was larger oval paper loss at the bottom of the same foldline, in the background area below Roland's foot. There were some tears and small areas of paper on parts of several foldlines and in the borders. There was some uneven darkening in the light background areas of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
