NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still, which measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm], has a wonderful image of Lon Chaney in his vampire makeup! Very few stills from this lost movie survive, and few of those show him in makeup. Condition: very good. There are faint ink smudges in the bottom right corner of the image. This was surely caused by coming into contact with a still laying on top of it, because the stills had printing in the bottom left of the back, which slightly transferred. Otherwise, the still is in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
