Date Sold 4/29/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Linenbacked Special Movie Poster (measures 21" x 28 1/2" [53 x 72 cm]) (Learn More) When a Girl Loves, the 1919 Phillips Smalley & Lois Weber silent romantic melodrama starring Mildred Harris (billed as "Mrs. Charlie Chaplin"), William Stowell, Wharton Jones, Alfred Paget, and Willis Marks. Note that female lead Mildred Harris was married to Charlie Chaplin from 1918 to 1921, and during that time, she was billed as "Mrs. Charlie Chaplin", but after they were divorced, she returned to being Mildred Harris. Note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. 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 mysterious poster. It measures a size far smaller than a one-sheet, and even so, it has wide blank borders. It does not seem like it could be a trimmed one-sheet, because if it were, it would have incredibly wide blank borders on all four sides, and besides, the litho company logo is right below the title, when it is normally in the bottom right corner. There is an important clue in the foldlines. The poster appears to have been trimmed on all four sides, and if you assume that the folds were evenly spaced, then the poster would have measured 34" x 40". But that doesn't seem to make any sense at all, because that is not a standard size, and it would still leave a ton of white space on all four sides. So we are left with thinking that this was some sort of "test" poster, where it was printed on a large sheet, for unknown reasons. We also have never seen this image anywhere else, and we have never had any poster from this movie (just two glass slides and three lobby cards). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU CAN ACCEPT THE UNCERTAINTIES ABOUT WHAT IT IS DESCRIBED ABOVE. It IS a stone litho poster for this movie, and it surely dates from 1919, but beyond that, we just don't know. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster appears to have been trimmed of blank paper on all four sides (see above). It had water staining in the top left that mostly shows as a long running down below the "s" of "Mrs." down to the flowers. It has odd folds around the edges and there are many smudges down the left fold, with small paper loss at the bottom left crossfold and pinholes around the edges. It had bleed-through from a stamp in the bottom right below the printer logo. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
