Mary Pickford / United Artists Promotional Hand Fan ca. 1920s

Die-cut Mary Pickford / United Artists promotional hand fan with wood handle, produced, we can assume, by Josep Germa (Sabadell, Spain) to advertise Anis del Taup anisette -- evidently, the preference for people of good taste. The front features a nice photo of Mary by Campbell Studio framed and surrounded by a floral design. ca. 1920s.

Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin, D. W. Griffith, etc. United Artists Signing - Photographs - 1919


"The Big Four," Mary Pickford, D. W. Griffith, Charlie Chaplain (seemingly giving the bird,) and Douglas Fairbanks outside of the Griffith Studio (on occassion referenced as the Mary Pickford Studio, which I believe is where interiors for Daddy Long Legs were at least filmed) for the United Artists formation in 1919.


Charlie Chaplin adds his signature as D. W. Griffith, Mary, Albert Banzhaf, Dennis O'Brien, and Douglas Fairbanks look on. Considering all but Chaplin are wearing the same clothing as the exterior shot, I suspect this was photograph was taken inside the Griffith Studio. 1919.

Mary Pickford, Charlotte Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin, Zorro and more Photograph - ca. 1924

Personal letter, with brief mention of Mary Pickford's Through the Back Door (1921,) from a United Artists employee on UA letterhead. The letter is signed "Irene," and based on some research, that is probaby "Irene Meares." The photos below were included.
