Description

Sherlock Holmes (Goldwyn, 1922). Lobby Card (11" X 14").
From Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's popular stories comes this excellent version starring one of the greatest stars of the cinema, John Barrymore, as the genius detective. The story revolves around Holmes's early days, and with Roland Young as Dr. Watson, he is able to outwit the diabolical Moriarty (Gustav von Seyffertitz). Young William Powell has his film debut in this classic. The card had some moisture staining in the right upper corner and along the lower border. There was some wear in the top border and a tear in the right border with some slight creasing within the card. The card has benefited from some excellent conservation work and it now displays beautifully. This is a fabulously rare card with Holmes having captured Moriarity. Fine-.
