Description

Why Worry? (Pathé, 1923). Title Lobby Card (11" X 14"). Harold Lloyd had agreed to use George Auger (who used the stage name the "Cardiff Giant"), a Ringling Brothers circus giant, in the role of Colosso the Giant, but he died shortly after filming began. After a nationwide publicity campaign to find a replacement, Norwegian John Aasen from Minnesota was cast to play the part. He was discovered as a result of a newspaper article about his shoe size and was used brilliantly in the film by Lloyd as "a living prop." This nicely hand-tinted title card has light smudges in the right field, small pinholes, edge wear, mild corner bumps, and a small crease in the lower right corner. Fine/Very Fine.
