Wolves of the Night Original photograph album from the 1919 film belonging to actor William Farnum
N.p.: N.p. 1919. Vintage album housing 49 vintage reference photographs from the 1919 silent film most showing noted early film star William Farnum. Of particular note in the album is a photograph of Farnum on the set with actors Lamar Johnstone and Charles Clary holding bouquets of flowers ostensibly at the end of the shoot. <br /> <br /> Laid in with the album is a small newspaper clipping from the Los Angeles Evening Herald showing a photograph of Farnum with his wife and stepson and noting Farnum's adoption of his stepson with a small manuscript ink annotation presumably made by Farnum at the top of the clipping: "It was raining I wore all my old duds-darn it I wasn't ready."<br /> <br /> A wealthy married mining engineer suffers amnesia after being injured in a mining explosion planned by his business rivals and is forced to seek shelter with a Chilean shepherd and the shepherd's daughter with whom he falls in love. Now considered a lost film. <br /> <br /> At the peak of his success Farnum was one of the highest-paid actors of the silent film age but was forced into an early semi-retirement after being injured on the set of the 1924 film "The Man Who Fights Alone." He appeared sporadically in character roles throughout the late 1920s 1930s and 1940s and enjoyed a successful career on Broadway.<br /> <br /> Photographs generally 10 x 8 inches. Near Fine. <br /> <br /> Album 12 x 8.25 inches. Very Good plus lightly soiled and creased. N.p. unknown
