Note that this was the movie that included the classic sequence of Lloyd climbing up the side of a building, and starting to fall, and then grabbing the hands of a giant clock, and then the works of the clock start to come apart! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a hand-colored half-sheet. In the days of silent film prior to the invention of good quality full-color printing, studios would have half-sheets printed in black and white and then amazingly would hire women to hand-color the half-sheets one at a time (apparently labor was very cheap at the time)! So, each half-sheet is colored slightly differently, and the coloring is never a perfect match. Condition: very good. There is a scuff mark that runs vertically down the center of the image in the background. There are two very light vertical creases that run down the lower left image background. There is staining in the blank borders. ""FAMOUS-THEATRE THU Learn More about condition grades
