An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 21 1/2" x 27 1/2") (Learn More) Godless Men, the 1920 Reginald Barker silent South Seas tropical island romantic infidelity seafaring sailor disaster melodrama ("Adapted from the famous story 'Black Pawl' by Ben Ames Williams"; about a really tough sailor whose wife was unfaithful to him, and he poisons his son against everyone, and the son grows up with much hatred, and ultimately, the father and son end up fighting to the death) starring Russell Simpson (as Black Pawl), Jim Mason, Helene Chadwick, John Bowers, and Alec B. Francis 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 movies prior to the invention of good quality full-color printing, studios would have posters printed in black and white and then amazingly would hire women to hand-color the posters one at a time (apparently labor was very cheap at the time)! So, each poster is colored slightly differently, and the coloring is never a perfect match. Also note that this half-sheet is very old, and it would not make sense to attempt to roll it, as the paper is fragile enough that rolling it might damage it. Therefore we will send it in a large flat package. Please bear that extra shipping cost in mind BEFORE placing a bid on this poster! Note that the poster is not so fragile that it is "falling to pieces"! If it is handled carefully, it can absolutely be framed and enjoyed without any worry. Condition: good. There is tattering and paper loss around the edges of the poster with several tape repairs on the back. Learn More about condition grades
