BUSTER KEATON / THE PALEFACE (1922) Lobby card

Sold

Vintage original 11 x 14″ (28 x 36 cm.) lobby card, USA. Buster Keaton, Virginia Fox, dir: Buster Keaton and Edward Cline; First National.

Very uncommon lobby card from one of the classic Keaton short films, with slapstick interactions between him and various Native American characters, who are attempting to prevent a land grab by some crooked white guys.

This card originally had a vertical fold (many rare silent lobby cards have only been found like this, as they were used as bookmarks by musicians accompanying silent movies, and, in many cases, these folded examples are the only ones known to exist). It was starch backed, allowing a talented conservator to touch up the center, where there had been a fold. The card now presents very nicely, VERY GOOD-.
