Beyond the Rocks (Paramount, 1922). Lobby Card
<B>Beyond the Rocks (Paramount, 1922).</B></I> Lobby Card (11" X 14"). Lost for decades, "Beyond the Rocks"<I> </B></I>turned up in the estate of a Dutch film buff, who bequeathed 2,000 rusty movie tins to the Nederlands Filmmuseum. The collector used to sleep between columns of containers filled with highly unstable and flammable nitrate film. In 2003, the Filmmuseum started to restore the movie, adding a new score by Dutch composer Henny Vrienten, and the results were unveiled in 2005. This gorgeous lobby pictures both of the stars at a prime moment in their film careers. The film was made the year after Rudolph Valentino's smash hits, "The Four Horsemen of Apocalypse" and "The Sheik"<I> </B></I>were released. Gloria Swanson was in the middle of her greatest reign at the time and is billed as the star. The card has pinholes in the corners as well as a few in the center of the top and bottom borders. Very Fine.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
