Description
Fool's Paradise (Paramount, 1921). Fine/Very Fine. Half Sheet (22" X 28") Style A.Cecil B. DeMille directs this transcontinental silent romance, moving from Mexico to Siam and involving an accidental blinding with a trick cigar and case of mistaken identity. The film was a financial success and is one of the lucky few from the era to survive completely intact. This is the first poster larger than a lobby card that Heritage has ever offered on the film. The poster exhibits pleasant, even toning, corner creases and chips, a 1.5" tear at lower right, tiny edge tears, and minor brown spotting. Original playdate information is handwritten in the top margin.
