Seitz silent sailing romantic melodrama ("The mightiest of all sea dramas"; "From the story by Norman Springer"; a wild story of a ship captain whose ship is hijacked and his wife and daughter kidnapped by a truly evil man, and he tries to rescue his wife and daughter by signing on as a crewman on the evil man's ship, and a handsome young crewman, who has fallen in love with the daughter, helps him) starring Hobart Bosworth, Jacqueline Logan, Richard Arlen ("Courtesy of Paramount"), Walter James, Fred Kohler, James Bradbury Sr., Arthur Rankin, Syd Crossley, Frank Hemphill, Chappell Dossett, and Blue Washington (one of the many talented black African American actors of the 1920s and 1930s who were forced to take stereotyped roles, due to the prejudices of the time; Washington was unusual among black actors at this time, because although he appeared in minor roles in such major movies as King Kong and Hallelujah, and became friendly with John Ford and Frank Capra, he saw how limited his movie career would be, and he became an LAPD police officer, but he continued to make movies steadily until 1953, and then made one final appearance in The Hustler in 1961!). Note that this was one of the earliest movies from Columbia Studios NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper items from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a set of six lobby cards (20 years ago), a single 8x10 still, and a Danish program from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this title 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: fair to good. There are pinholes around the edges and light stains scattered throughout the card. The card was used in South America and has a snipe for Max Glucksmann glued to the top left. This is the sort of card that responds really well to professional restoration. It is likely that much or all of the stains can be removed through chemical means, after which the card will display pretty well. Learn More about condition grades
