A 1916 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Lobby Card (Learn More)

The Sheriff of Muscotine, the 1914 Richard Stanton silent Iowa cowboy western short ("In two parts"; produced by Thomas H. Ince; about a bandit that is captured by the sheriff and is about to face justice when the bandit's elderly mother shows up and for the sake of the mother, the sheriff pretends that the bandit has been made sheriff, only it turns out that the mother is actually the bandit's friend in disguise and they escape) starring Richard Stanton, Fanny Midgley, and Louis Morrison (billed as "Lewis Morrison"; in the title role as The Sheriff)
Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never previously auctioned anything from this movie until we received this card!

Note that, in the early days of movie making, when lobby cards were first made (around 1915), studios would issue sets of the cards in two sizes; the regular 11" x 14" size, and a smaller 8" x 10" size. The cards were identical in every way except for the different size. This practice continued through the early 1920s, at which point the studios abandoned the smaller lobby cards, likely because theaters either ordered 11" x 14" lobby cards or 8" x 10" stills, and did not order enough of the 8" x 10" lobby cards to justify them continuing to make them.

UPDATED 06/06/2021: Note that this lobby card is from the 1916 re-release, and not the 1914 first release as we originally mentioned.
