Description

Salome (Fox, 1918). Very Fine. Hand Tinted Lobby Card (11" X 14").
Theda Bara, in one of her greatest successes, plays the destructive femme fatale Salome in this early adaptation of the Biblical tale. Seductively dancing for King Herod, Salome is granted a request as reward -- the head of John the Baptist. Of extra special note, this lobby card appears to be the only known hand tinted lobby card, as all others are sepia. This card is in beautiful condition. Pinholes in the corners have been filled in. From the Ira M. Resnick Collection.
