An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 28 1/4" x 41" [72 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Let's Get a Divorce, the 1918 Charles Giblyn silent romantic love triangle comedy ("From Victorien Sardou's 'Divorcon's'"; "The escape from the convent garden"; about a spoiled pretty woman who is married, but who has an affair and tells her husband she wants a divorce, but he devises a scheme to get her to stay with him) starring Billie Burke ("By arrangement of F. Ziegfeld, Jr."), John Miltern, Pinna Nesbit, Armand Kaliz, and Rod La Rocque. Billie Burke was a top star who was married to Florenz Ziegfeld, so that explains why she was credited in the above way. And of course, two decades later, she would become Glinda the Good Witch in The Wizard of Oz. Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist.
