NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Emilio Vila Important Added Info: Note that first release movie paper from this Theda Bara Biblical movie is extremely rare. In 2001, a man discovered two examples of the U.S. one-sheet, and we auctioned those in 2001 and 2002. But otherwise, we have never seen even a single U.S. poster of any sort, and this French poster (with a fantastic image of Theda Bara) is the only non-U.S. poster we have ever seen! Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had a few tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss on very small parts of the foldlines. It had some small tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
