A rather scarce Cinderella die-cut ad from 1914, additionally stamped for a March 12 NEW Theatre screening in a city unknown, issued by the Famous Players Film Company. What is most interesting and somewhat amusing is, yes, it shows Mary as Cinderella, but also as Queen Anna Victoria from her now-lost film Such a Little Queen (1914.) In any event, I am uncertain just which Famous Players films made use of similar advertising, but I can say that I have also seen die-cuts for Poor Little Peppina (1916) and Madame Butterfly (1915.)
And redundantly, an ad for an ad. This scan comes from an issue of Moving Picture World magazine and is not part of the collection.
