East is West (1922)

This is an original, linen-backed, one-sheet movie poster from 1922 for East is West starring Constance Talmadge, Edmund Burns, Warner Oland, E. Alyn Warren, and Frank Lanning.  Sidney Franklin directed the silent drama based on the 1918 Broadway play by Samuel Shipman and John B. Hymer.

The poster measures 27” x 41” and has been linen-backed for long-term preservation and display. Prior to restoration, the poster was in good to very good condition with wear along the edge with some minor paper loss on the left edge. It was folded at the time of printing and had separations at the cross-folds.  The folds are much less noticeable after linen-backing. The poster has been nicely restored and is now in very good to excellent condition.  Linen-backed posters are stored flat and rolled for shipping in a rigid, tube mailer.

Please look closely at the photos (this is the exact poster you are buying). It is not cropped or a stock image.

This extremely rare and collectible poster, printed in 1922 to promote the theatrical release of East is West, is not a reproduction or a reprint.
