Description

Her Condoned Sin (Biograph Studios, 1917). Fine on Linen. One Sheet (28" X 40.75").
In 1914, D.W. Griffith made Judith of Bethulia starring Blanche Sweet, Henry B. Walthall, Mae Marsh, Robert Harron, and a very young Lillian Gish. This was a Biblical film, about a religious woman who seeks to save her people from destruction by seducing and murdering the enemy leader, but then she falls in love with him! In 1917 Griffith decided to revise the three year old film, re-editing it, and adding newly filmed scenes, and he gave it the new title, Her Condoned Sin. The poster material for this release prominently mentioned Griffith's great successes since the 1914 movie, The Birth of a Nation, and Intolerance. Prior to restoration, the poster had fold wear, chips in the borders, and a center crossfold chip.
