Description by seller: “Early one sheet posters for silent comedic genius Buster Keaton hardly ever surface, and this is one of particular significance – this was Keaton’s very first full length feature film. Three Ages is a parody of D.W. Griffith’s epic silent film Intolerance and was actually three short two reel films strung together. Keaton reasoned that if a feature didn’t sell well to theaters, he could break the three parts up and release them separately”.
