This is a remake of a 1915 movie of the same name starring Fannie Ward and Sessue Hayakawa. 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. Important Added Info: Note that there are both full color and black & white lobby cards known to exist on this title. It is quite possible that Paramount sold a color set for more money than they sold the black & white set. The color cards are not "hand colored", although there were studios hand-coloring cards at this time. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good to very good. There are pinholes, tears, and small paper loss around the edges of the card, and a few scuffs and dot stains scattered in the image. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
