    Description

    Vintage original 27x41 in. U.S. rotogravure one-sheet poster
    from the silent film comedy,
    BUNTY PULLS THE STRINGS
    , released in 1921 by the Goldwyn Pictures Corporation and
    directed by Reginald Barker
    .
    Bunny Biggar (Leatrice Joy), sister of Rab (Cullen Landis) and Jeremy (Casson Ferguson) and daughter of Tammas (Russell Simpson), a stern church elder in a small Scotch village, subtly controls all three through diplomatic tactics. Jeemy confesses to having robbed a bank and begs his father to replace the money, which he does with money left with him for safekeeping by Susie Simpson (Josephine Crowell), a spinster interested in Tammas. Susie, who overhears a telephone conversation between Tammas and Eelen (Edythe Chapman), a friend from Tammas' past, hears about the misuse of her money and demands it back; when it is not returned, she disgraces him in church. Bunty intercedes and returns the money by borrowing an equal sum from Weelum, whom she later marries in a double wedding--the other couple: Tammas and Eelen.
    This is the film's rare "rotogravure" one-sheet poster, which features a collage of photographic images from the film. The design and composition are truly striking and the main characters are featured on this beautiful Scottish-themed poster which has a wonderful vintage feel to it. It features the classic elements of Scotland including an image of a man playing the bagpipes and a Scottish plaid border. It has been professionally linen-backed and is in near-fine condition with minor restoration to correct various
    imperfections within the borders and on the fold lines. The poster will be shipped rolled in a sturdy gorilla-proof tube to prevent damage during transit.
