The Pilgrim (First National, 1923). Lobby Card
<B>The Pilgrim (First National, 1923).</B></I> Lobby Card (11" X 14"). "The Pilgrim" was Charlie Chaplin's last 'short' for First National. He's an escaped convict who steals a preacher's clothes on the banks of a river and assumes his identify. In this very scarce lobby card there is a policeman eyeing him suspiciously. That policeman is actually a piece of film history in himself. That's Monta Bell in an uncredited part. Bell (Peter Lawford's stepfather) would go on to edit films for Chaplin and become a fine director, producer, and screenwriter. He produced two Hollywood legends in their first films, Garbo in 'Torrent', and the Marx Brothers in 'Cocoanuts.' There are pinholes, minor border soiling, and light dust shadows. The color stenciling registration is excellent. Fine/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>)
