An Original Vintage Theatrical Jumbo Movie Window Card (WC; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Zane Grey's The Vanishing American (released in Australia as "The Vanishing Race"), the classic 1925 George B. Seitz silent Native American Indian World War I (WWI) melodrama ("The story of the red man's stand against civilization"; "A Paramount picture of Zane Grey's story"; about the incredible mistreatment of Native Americans; in this story, Navajos have their best horses stolen by a crooked Army agent; then a kindly schoolteacher convinces them to sell the rest of their horses to the Army, because the American fight in World War I is for them too; the lead Native American, played by Richard Dix, is so inspired that he joins the Army himself, and is a war hero, but when he returns, he discovers that his fellow Indians are more mistreated than ever, and want to start a war against the white man) starring Richard Dix, Lois Wilson, Noah Beery Sr., Malcolm McGregor, Nocki, Bruce Gordon, and Gary Cooper (as an uncredited extra!) 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 VERY unusual poster! It basically is very much like a "personality poster" from the 1920s, but those are almost always for individual actors, and this is not only for a movie, but it also shows Richard Dix in character! So it could be a personality poster or it could be a jumbo window card, but it really is a combination of both! We are calling it a jumbo window card, but we could see someone calling it a personality poster. Either way, we have never before auctioned it. It certainly has a great image, which is a wonderful close portrait of barechested Native American Indian Richard Dix! Condition: very good. There are pinholes and smudges around the edges, with some tiny tears and tiny paper loss caused by rough removal of the pins. There is a 2" tear in the left of the top border that has a piece of tape on the back, but otherwise, no restoration was performed. Learn More about condition grades
