D.W. Griffith's THE WHITE ROSE (1923) Mae Marsh & Ivor Novello Seduction Drama

Description: Offered here is a vintage original 11x14 in. US lobby card from the silent film drama/romance, THE WHITE ROSE, released in 1923 by United Artists and directed by D.W. Griffith. A wealthy young Southern aristocrat, Joseph (Ivor Novello), graduates from a seminary and, before he takes charge of his assigned parish, decides to go out and see what "the real world" is all about. He winds-up in New Orleans and finds himself attracted to a poor, unsophisticated orphan girl, Bessie (Mae Marsh). One thing leads to another, and before long Bessie finds that she is pregnant with Joseph's child. The image features an exterior long shot of the film's leads, Mae Marsh (as Bessie "Teazie" Willliams) and Ivor Novello (as Joseph Beaugarde), as the lovers enjoy a tranquil moment together in a park-like setting. The border artwork at the right features a solitary white rose and a design with different colored circles. The lobby card set for this film was issued in both a "flat" and "glossy" (or vanish) style and this card represents the glossy style. In addition, the glossy style cards feature three butterflies in the border artwork at the left and bottom which do not appear on the flat style set of cards. This vintage original lobby card is unrestored in very good+ condition with a light water stain on portions of the bottom and side borders of the card; a 1.75 in. and 1 in. diagonal crease on the top left corner; one or two pinholes in each corner; and small creases on the right corners. The beautiful color tints are fresh and vibrant without any signs of fading.Provenance: The John T. Hillman and Marcelo Coronado Collection.The White Rose was the final screen collaboration between Mae Marsh and director D.W. Griffith. It was the only American film that Ivor Novello appeared in and was one of two films that Mae Marsh starred in with Novello. The original print was hand-tinted in soft pinks and greens.
