Auction History Result 3w133 1920s EARLY WESTERN SCRAPBOOK hundreds of Spanish language ads & clippings + Lon Chaney! Date Sold 2/12/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A Homemade Spanish Language Scrapbook (measures 13 1/4" x 17"; 102 pages) (Learn More) This is a special homemade Spanish-language scrapbook containing 102 pages of Spanish language newspaper and magazine clippings, and photographs of various popular western actors of the 1920s, although there are a very few images from the 1930s to 1950s scattered in the scrapbook (I do not know if that means the entire scrapbook was compiled in the 1950s, although it seems more likely to me that those later items were added years later and that the scrapbook was compiled in the 1920s). EVEN THOUGH ALMOST ALL OF THE SCRAPBOOK IS OF WESTERN STARS, THERE ARE SIX PAGES OF SOLELY LON CHANEY MATERIAL IN BOTH SPANISH AND ENGLISH (and we have included a two-page spread of those in our image)! It was compiled by a South American movie fan who was a VERY avid theatergoer during that time. They would paste newspaper articles and ads and magazine clippings in the scrapbook. All of the items in this scrapbook are tightly glued to the pages, although a professional or talented amateur could remove them (I do not know if some or all can be removed without damage to the back portion of the items). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that we were consigned three of these albums, and we are selling them in three separate auctions. Note that this scrapbook has solely newspaper and magazine ads (one of the other two scrapbooks has heralds in it, but this one DOES NOT). Condition: very good. The covers of the scrapbook are somewhat banged up around the edges, but the interior pages are in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
