Silent Sunday – Handbill for “Civilization’s Child” With Anna Lehr

Year of Ann Dvorak: Day 223

As I discusses last week, one of the byproducts of collecting on Ann Dvorak is the small collection of items I have accumulated relating to her mother, Anna Lehr.

Here is a handbill I bought at some point for the 1916 Triangle feature Civilization’s Child directed by Thomas Ince. Anna Lehr is quite prominent on this piece and appears in the two circular photos above, as well as the one on the bottom left. She also appears on the cover.

Once upon a time, I had the luxury of spending hours on eBay doing searches for all of Ann Dvorak and Anna Lehr’s film titles, which is how I came across this piece. Those days are long gone, so I am glad I was able to do some Anna Lehr fishing while I had the chance.
