An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

The Devil-Stone, the 1917 Cecil B. DeMille silent romantic curse fantasy murder mystery melodrama ("From the story by Beatrice DeMille and Leighton Osmun"; "By Jeanie Macpherson"; about a "fisherwoman" who finds a priceless emerald, and a rich American marries her so that he can get the emerald and divorce her and she learns of it and kills him in self defense!) starring Geraldine Farrar, Wallace Reid, Hobart Bosworth, Tully Marshall, and James Neill. Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that movie paper from this film is incredibly rare. We have only auctioned three stills and one glass slide for the film and NO other movie paper items from this movie until we were consigned this half-sheet! Note also 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 to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a small tear at lower right and some faint smudges and scuffs scattered in a few areas. It is otherwise in generally nice condition, especially given its age.
