McGill silent newspaper journalism female reporter adventure comedy ("A Multiple Reel Feature"; "The supreme motion picture achievement introducing twelve famous stars who aided her"; about a young Irish girl in New York City who gets a job as a newspaper reporter, but is told by her editor that she must interview as many theater celebrities as possible, and she not only does so, but she takes an airplane from Connecticut to New York in order to get her story to the paper in time, which was quite daring in 1915!; the movie included cameos by many famous Broadway stars of the day, appearing as themselves) starring Marguerite Gale (in the title role "as the heroine Molly Malone"), with cameo appearances by Leo Ditrichstein, May Robson, Robert Edeson, Cyril Scott, Lulu Glaser, Henrietta Crosman, Henry Kolker, Julian Eltinge (who was perhaps the most famous female impersonator of the 1910s), Madame Grace Fjorde, Charles J.

Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note that decades ago someone made a "find" of three-sheets and six-sheets from this title (we have auctioned three of each over all of our years). But there were no one-sheets from this title in that find, and not only have we never auctioned this before, but we can't find that anyone has! Note also that this one-sheet measures 28" x 41 1/4" [71 x 105 cm]. Also note that this poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The poster was tri-folded only and it has some tape stains on the back of the borders and on the back of part of the top fold. It has a piece of clear tape on the front of the top fold in Gale's hair. It has tape stains, water stains, t and small paper loss around the edges. This extremely rare poster can certainly be rescued by a talented restorer, after which it would display well, but bear in mind the defects and see our super-sized image before bidding.
