Esmeralda - Postcards - 1915 (ca. 1920?)


These two exquisitely designed, 2-color (black and metallic bronze ink) Esmeralda (1915) postcards utilize stills from the film of the highest quality (or not.) While it is possible these postcards might have been produced around the time of the film's release, I suspect they might have been made around 1920 or so as I have seen a similar postcard for Heart o' the Hills (1919) -- though I can be wrong. Without any sort of information as to a publisher/printer, it is difficult to say. One of the postcards is most unusual in that the reverse is printed on on a separate piece of paper and affixed to the printed card stock. Have you seen any others?
