Description
United States, 1920. Painted poster with affixed photograph, measuring 14 x 21 inches. Toned, with water damage and slight damage to edges; very good to excellent.. A painted poster advertising the 1920 film The Girl Who Dared, a Western directed by Clifford Smith and starring Edythe Sterling. The story follows Barbara Hampton, a rancher’s daughter who is elected sheriff of a small town and must take on the cattle rustlers who are after her father. Sterling, born Edith May Kessinger (1893–1962), was a prolific actress known for working with animals; after her film career, she performed riding stunts in a Wild West show. Smith (1894–1937) was similarly prolific, directing more than eighty films during his career—mainly Westerns, which were especially popular during the silent era. This poster is hand-painted with a photograph from the film affixed and advertises 1¢ admission, which was remarkably cheap even for the time.
