An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Movie Window Card (WC; measures 13 1/4" x 21 1/2" [34 x 55 cm]) (Learn More) A Blind Bargain, the 1922 Wallace Worsley silent science fiction (sci-fi) horror mystery crime thriller starring Lon Chaney Sr. (in a dual role, both as the mad surgeon Dr. Lamb and as his crippled assistant, "The Ape Man"), Raymond McKee, Virginia True Boardman, Aggie Herring, Virginia Madison, and Wallace Beery (in an uncredited role as the "Beast Man"). 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. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this window card, and that was 11 years ago, when it sold for $1,365! Note also that the card measures under 14" x 22" (a relatively small amount in each direction!) and has next-to-no left, right, or bottom blank borders, but it has NOT been trimmed (this was done at a time when MGM was experimenting with having as few borders as possible). This window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good to very good. The card has some tiny paper loss and tiny surface paper loss in the bottom border. It had some light water staining and someone lightly bleached the card without backing it and performed slight restoration to the front of the card, primarily in the solid-colored areas.
