An Original Vintage Theatrical Chapter #9 ("The Signal Shot") Movie Title Lobby Card (11x14; LC; measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) The Fighting Marine, the 1926 Spencer Gordon Bennet silent U.S. Marines military action adventure serial starring Gene Tunney ("The world's new heavyweight champion"; the real life heavyweight boxing champion of the world!), Marjorie Day, Jack Anthony, Walter Miller, and Virginia Vance. Note that many boxing champions have turned to movies (either while they were champ or after) as a way to "cash in" on their fame, but Gene Tunney (who was champion at the time this movie was filmed) obviously wisely realized that this was not for him, and never appeared in another movie. Also, like many serials, a feature version was edited from the 10 chapters and released to theaters separately. Finally, 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. Condition: very good. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back of the card! Learn More about condition grades
