The Gunfighter (Fox, 1923). Very Fine- on Linen. One Sheet (28.5" X 41").
One of Fox Studios' top box office draws, William Farnum was born to be a star. The son of actors and brother of The Squaw Man lead Dustin Farnum, William was earning a salary of $10,000 dollars per week at the height of his career. In this silent "Mountain Melodrama" Farnum plays an outsider who gets himself entangled in a long-running feud between mountain clans, the Benchleys and the Camps. This thrilling stone litho one sheet captures a tense moment, as Farnum sends one of the baddies reeling over the side of a cliff. Touchup to the folds, a chip in the lower crossfold, a tear in the top right background, and a small tear in the black bottom right background.
