Description

The Grim Game (Paramount, 1919). Fine+. Lobby Card (11" X 14").
The greatest magician of all time, Harry Houdini, stars in this very early Jesse Laskey picture. It tells the story of a wrongly accused man who uses his considerable skills as an escape artist to remain free and rescue his beloved. This rare lobby pictures the great Houdini being subdued by the police. This ultra rare hand-tinted lobby shows some border stains, pinholes, gentle corner bumps, and some interior surface scuffs. From the Wood Hall Collection.
