An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Captain Blood, the 1924 David Smith silent pirate swashbuckling romantic action adventure melodrama ("The greatest love story ever told"; based on the novel by Rafael Sabatini) starring J. Warren Kerrigan (in the title role as Captain Peter Blood), Jean Paige, Charlotte Merriam, James Morrison, and Allan Forrest. Note that this movie was remade in 1935 and Errol Flynn played the lead role, and it was a huge success. That caused this earlier silent version to be completely forgotten by everyone except for film buffs. Movie paper from this 1924 version is virtually non-existent! We have never sold any first release U.S. poster or lobby card (we did have a glass slide and a few stills), and we have never had any first release non-U.S. posters, except for a French poster! Unfortunately, only 30 minutes of the film still exists.

Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper items from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a herald, two stills, and a glass slide from this movie (and NO other movie paper) until we received this lobby card! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

Condition: very good. The card has slightly darkened, typical some Vitagraph lobby cards of this period. There are a few creases and pinholes around the edges. There is a tiny tape repair on the back of the bottom left corner. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition!
