An Original Vintage Folded Special Movie Poster (measures 39 1/4" x 55" [100 x 140 cm]) (Learn More) Pumps, the 1913 Laurence Trimble silent shoe store romantic comedy short ("Tight shoes bring them into unexpected and sympathetic relationship. The both share the same trunk now."; about two society women at a party who are invited to go dancing with the others, but they don't have dancing shoes, so they rush to a store and each buy a pair, but they are too small, and they both have aching feet, so after the dance, they sit in their bare feet and commiserate, and apparently showing women with just stockings on was quite shocking for 1913!) starring Courtenay Foote, Florence Turner, George Stevens, and Emilie Hayward.

Important Added Info: Note that we only previously auctioned one example of this special poster! Not only that, but the only other poster from this movie we have ever auctioned were three U.S. sheets. Also note that this is a VERY unusual poster from the early 1910s! In the earliest days of movie distribution, the studios (especially The Vitagraph Company) temporarily hit on the idea of creating one poster for use in several European countries, and to make that work, they put the title of the movie in three different languages at the top of the poster! The languages are Italian, German, and French. This is a rare opportunity to purchase an extremely early movie poster! Condition: fair. The poster is fragile and there is darkening on the folds and staining scattered on parts of the back and some of it shows through to the front. There are also tears and areas of paper loss on parts of the folds and borders. Please bear all of this in mind before bidding on this extremely rare poster. Learn More about condition grades
