A Good Little Devil (1914) "The tortured, beaten boy becomes a lord" Famous Players postcard manufactured by the Krauss Mfg. Co. This production, actually taken in 1913, was produced at the Famous Players 26th Street Studio in NYC while the stage performance was still running at the Republic Theatre. Mary recalled that the troupe filmed at the studio during the days there were no matinees, and then ran the performance again on the theatre stage at night. The film was generally a flop as it was essentially just the theatrical performance, sans sound, but it was the start of a fantastic relationship between Mary and Adolph Zukor which played an important part in the movie history. This postcard is additionally marked on verso for a Saturday, April 25, 1914 screening at the Town Hall Theatre in Orange, MA.
