Auction History Result 3p1657 SON OF DEMOCRACY chapter 2 glass slide 1918 Benjamin Chapin as Abraham Lincoln, My Father! Date Sold 1/17/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Chapter #2 (My Father) Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) The Son of Democracy, the 1918 Benjamin Chapin silent Civil War historical political biographical melodrama ("A series of dramatic film stories of America in the making"; "Written, directed, and produced by Benjamin Chapin") starring Benjamin Chapin (as Abraham Lincoln). Note that this was one of a series of 10 shorts that were entirely created by Benjamin Chapin, who starred as Abraham Lincoln in all of them. They were all released under the umbrella title of "The Son of Democracy", with each having a specific name for that short, kind of like a serial, but this was not a serial in the traditional sense, and was ten short films, each intended to stand independently, but each following the other. The ten parts are: Episode 1 "My Mother", Episode 2 "My Father", Episode 3 "A Call to Arms", Episode 4 "My First Jury", Episode 5 "Tender Memories", Episode 6 "A President's Answer", Episode 7 "His Native State", Episode 8 "Down the River", Episode 9 "The Slave Auction", Episode 10 "Under the Stars". Normally, we would list these as separate entries, but since they are surely all incredibly rare, we are listing them under the umbrella title. Finally, note that Benjamin Chapin was one of the actors who solely made a living impersonating Lincoln, and while he only appeared in a few other movies where he played Lincoln, he also made stage show appearances as Lincoln as well. Important Added Info: Note that glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). This slide is the kind that has two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of the image, but we have not taken a photo of the slide, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: very good.
