Searle Dawley silent mistaken identity romantic comedy ("The famous 'Sub-Deb' on the screen at last"; "One of the famous 'Sub-Deb' stories by Mary Roberts Rinehart"; "The Saturday Evening Post stories brought to life"; a very cute story of a teenage girl who comes home from boarding school, and not only does her family treat her like a little girl, but they also are consumed by the plans for her older sister's wedding; so, to get their attention, she takes a picture of a movie star and presents him as her "fiance"; but as luck would have it, her sister's fiance is friends with the movie star, and he gets the star to visit, and present himself as her fiance!) starring Marguerite Clark (in the title role as Bab Archibald), Nigel Barrie, Leone Morgan, Frank Losee, and Isabel O'Madigan. Note that this movie was based on a series of stories by Mary Roberts Rinehart, about the adventures of a teenage girl, and this was the first time one of the stories was made into a movie (and Miss Clark would star in two more entries). 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. Important Added Info: 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.
