This is one of two custom bodied film car images in our collection from the silent era.  Both were shot here in Philadelphia on the Market Street crossing of the Schuylkill River, near 30th Street Station.  One was for a serial with many chapters, so that car had legs, if you will, at least for the length of the series!  The other, shown here, was for the blockbuster THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCALYPSE.  Directed by the fascinating and multi faceted Rex Ingram and starring Rudolf Valentino and Alice Terry, who'd recently married Ingram.

I have not yet seen the film, but the reviews on IMDB are all emphatically positive.  The minutia of the crossroads of the various characters making and acting in this film, and the themes explored in it in the context of being just out of WWI are the kinds of details that I find really delightful when talking with friends about the various works of art we've chosen to enliven our walls.  Among the cornucopia of trivia is that The Four Horsemen Of The Apocalypse was the highest-grossing silent movie ever; it earned $9,183,673 - close to $300 million in 2005 dollars.


The other sister print, if you will, is for the aforementioned serial Nan of the North, 1922, starring Ann Little as Nan.  Same car, same location, one year later.  The synopsis on IMDB sounds interesting...

A Canadian Mountie and a young girl team up to prevent an evil couple from finding a fallen meteorite that contains a powerful element called "Tilano."

Hmmmmmmmm... Gotta try me a little Tilano with this overripe Bleu Bresse cheese on a Finnish flat bread, you bet!

BOTH prints show very well together, however you choose to place them, and while they stand on their own, there is the fun of bringing the pair into your life.  NOTE that we've sent copies of both images to IMDB, where they now reside as part of the reference materials specific to each of the films, and available for public view.  Gotta share your toys!

I showed them both to the Curator of Collections at the venerable Athenaeum (look them up!).  He knew so much in an instant about their Philadelphia location and was delightfully blathering faster than I could take notes

A NOTE ON OUR PROCESS, OUR CHOICES AND THE QUALITY OF THE GRAPHIC CRAFTSMANSHIP THAT GOES INTO OUR PRINTS.

Every print we deem exciting enough to present to the public via our Etsy store or available here at our studio has gone through a number of steps. The first of those is always discovering and falling in love with an obscure image, always an original that we can hold in our hands. That image is speaking to us, sometime screaming “Don’t leave me here. See what I am, what I was, what I can be, what I SHOULD be!”

There is a real sense of excitement involved, and a great many smiles and knowing grins when we make that deal and bring that ancient print, that battered photo, that scrap of ephemera that contains some scrap of genius from an unknown commercial artist home with us, knowing already how we mean to approach its restoration.

There is the heady promise of a further hunt just as real as what drags a weekend fisherman out of bed at 3AM to work a favorite brook as we start our research, looking for that great backstory, and both ready and willing to tumble down as many rabbit holes as are revealed to us to get that story.

Then there is a meticulous digital restoration that is as often as much fun as riding a vintage Moto Guzzi on a winding coastal road. I don’t care if that sounds crazy, it really is like jumping in the saddle! So many choices, so many chances to take to subtly or spectacularly give new life to otherwise permanently obscure images.

This dedication and the ongoing rush of joy in the accomplishment of it, and the opportunity to share the results in our studio and here on Etsy, is the fire of passion that keeps these engines roaring. We make every effort to ensure our customers are not just satisfied but thrilled, and we happily stand 100% behind our work.

Large, excellent toy with many squeakers!
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
This toy is excellent! I’m super happy with this purchase. My dog loves squeakers and there are so many in this toy, plus stuffing for her to rip out, and crinkle paper to take the sensory experience up another notch! It’s also more durable than many other plush-type dog toys, and is larger than expected which is a plus in my book. For size reference, both dogs are around 40lbs. I will be buying another as soon as this one is demolished!

Huge and fun. Good for two dogs to play with together.
Color: Yellow
This dog toy is great! And it's HUGE. Each tentacle crinkles, and the dogs love to play tug-of-war with it. It seems to be holding up well, too. It seemed a bit pricy for a dog toy, but it turns out it was worth it.

My dogs new favorite toy!
Color: Blue
His new favorite toy! My dog absolutely loves it!!! It’s much bigger than I thought it would be so my dog has to be careful when he’s running with it because he will trip on the legs of the octopus. The best part is there is a little squeaker in the bottom of each leg! Bonus!!! If your dog chews up stuffed animals, this will be no different. It is a stuffed animal. My baby just likes to carry it around and squeak it a 1000 times a day. Don’t mind my crazy voice in the video. That’s the voice I use when he’s excited about a toy. He greets me every day with his octopus.🥰

Fun while they lasted
Color: Green
I ordered two. One for each pup. Both my puppies loved this toy. The first one lasted less than a day with my pup who loves to do the death shake on everything. The second lasted two days with the other as she chews in the same spot. They loved the crinkle noise. However, I'm taking one star away due to not lasting long. Everything else was fine and they enjoyed them while they lasted. Note that most toys do not last long with my pups.
