By The Sea
Essanay, 1915. U.S. one sheet poster, paper-backed. Charlie Chaplin is at his slapstick best in this single reeler (his last) which also stars his frequent co-star, Edna Purviance. The film was written and directed by Chaplin, and the colorful poster, which is possibly the only copy to have appeared at auction, captures "The Little Tramp" in his signature garb, laughing joyfully.
