Bulldog Drummond (Hodkinson Pictures,1922). Window Card (13" X 21"). This first filmed version of the famed stage melodrama starred Carlyle Blackwell as Captain Hugh Drummond, soldier of fortune. Bored by inactivity, Drummond advertises for "adventure" in the Times, and gets adventure aplenty when he becomes involved with a plot to kidnap an industrialist. The film's tension highlight was the scene in which the villainous Dr. Lakington (Warwick Ward) taunts a bound Drummond by fondling unconscious heroine Phyllis Benton (Evelyn Greeley. This early silent version was shot in England. A sound version was done in 1929 with Ronald Colman playing the lead. This extremely rare window card for the first 1922 version is in beautiful condition. Prior to restoration, it had been folded once horizontally in the center. The artwork was done by E. William Haemmel. Very Fine on Cardstock. Shipping: Flat Material, Large (view shipping information) Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions.
