Exceptional vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 photo of a young Chaplin in a three piece suit, boldly signed in fountain pen, “With kind regards, Charlie Chaplin 1925.” The Gold Rush was a huge success in the US and worldwide. It is the 5th highest grossing silent film in cinema history, taking in more than $4,000,000 at the box office in 1926. It is in fact the highest grossing silent comedy film. Chaplin proclaimed at the time of its release that this was the film for which he wanted to be remembered. A few scattered and unobtrusive surface marks, otherwise very fine condition. A tremendous and early image of one of the seminal geniuses in the history of film! PSA/DNA Auction LOA and R&R COA.
