An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 26 1/2" x 40 1/2") (Learn More) The Sagebrusher, the 1920 Edward Sloman silent romantic love triangle melodrama ("The photoplay of the novel by Emerson Hough"; a really wild story of a man trying to find a mail order bride for his kindly but ugly friend; he finds one, but she backs out at the last minute and sends her friend in her place, who is going blind, which works out great, because she can't see how ugly her new husband-to-be is, but then a handsome doctor performs an eye operation on her and falls in love with her, and that is only part of this really complicated and preposterous tale of the old west!) starring Roy Stewart, Marguerite De La Motte, Noah Beery Sr., Betty Brice, and Betty Brice 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 this is one of a very interesting group of silent one-sheets from the late 1910s and early 1920s that were found under a carpet in a VERY old house! We have no idea why, but at some point in the early 1920s, someone took around 30 one-sheet posters and placed them in a stack under a carpet (perhaps to hide them?). They stayed there undisturbed for the next 75 or so years, until someone ripped up the carpet and found them. MANY OF THE POSTERS HAD SUSTAINED CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE, WHILE OTHERS WERE NOT THAT DAMAGED AT ALL. All of these posters absolutely need expert professional restoration (obviously, some will require much more restoration than others), but in many cases, the poster we are offering may well be the only surviving example of that poster, so it would seem they are all well worth "rescuing". But please do not bid on any of these posters unless you have read our description of their condition, and have carefully studied our super-sized image, and unless you are prepared to pay to have the poster properly restored. Note that some of the posters measure different sizes (some may be trimmed) and we have noted their sizes. Finally, note that this one-sheet measures 26 1/2" x 40 1/2". Please do not bid on this poster thinking it is 27" x 41". Condition: poor. This poster is in truly dreadful condition! There is discoloration and staining throughout the poster and there are large areas of paper loss. Please do not bid on this poster unless you are willing to accept its defects or have it restored!
