1924 A Set of Four Original Silent Film Lobby Cards for The Girl on the Stairs starring Patsy Ruth Miller - This collection consists of four original vintage theatrical lobby cards for the 1924 silent film The Girl on the Stairs. These hand-tinted lithographic cards were produced for the film's release by the Producers Distributing Corporation (PDC) and produced by Peninsula Studios, Inc. The set includes a title card featuring full production credits and a stylized silhouette illustration, alongside three scene cards. The scene cards depict various sequences including an interior factory or workroom setting, an outdoor garden with a couple where the woman wears a red dress and holds a blue parasol, and a group scene at a pool or beach featuring characters in period 1920s swimwear. Each card displays a yellow banner at the top with the text PATSY RUTH MILLER in THE GIRL ON THE STAIRS. A logo for the Producers Distributing Corporation is located in the bottom right corner of the image area. Credits on the title card identify the production as being presented by Elmer Harris, directed by William Worthington, and adapted from a story by Winston Bouve from Ainslee's Magazine. Additional text in the margins includes COUNTRY OF ORIGIN U.S.A. at the bottom left and the printer attribution WYANOAK N.Y. at the bottom right. Approximately 11 x 14 inches each. The cards are in good to very good vintage condition. Observable wear is consistent with age and historical theatrical display, including light overall toning and minor edge wear. Some cards show small corner creases and minor nicks. The reverse sides exhibit moderate age-related discoloration and ink ghosting from long-term stacking.
