An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" Lobby Card (Learn More) The Pretty Sister of Jose, the 1915 Allan Dwan silent Spain bullfighting romantic love triangle melodrama ("By Frances Hodgson Burnett"; about a Spanish woman and her brother, and their mother is abandoned by their father and kills herself, causing the daughter to swear to never have a romance, but then her brother gets involved with a famous toreador, and one thing leads to another) starring Marguerite Clark (in the title role as Pepita), Jack Pickford (in the title role as Jose), Edythe Chapman, Gertrude Norman, William Lloyd, and Rupert Julian. Note that this is one of the movies created during the time when Paramount Pictures was first beginning! At that time, it was solely a loose connection between top studios, who distributed together, and their films were noted as being "released on the Paramount Program". This one was produced by Daniel Frohman for the Famous Players Film Co., which the President of which was Adolph Zukor, who would soon become the President of Paramount Pictures once it became a regular corporation. Also 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.
