Remarks:

There's enough back story to write a long article about Bull Montana, a wrestler/actor but the short version is that Douglas Fairbanks befriended him after watching him wrestle and put him in several Fairbanks films.

Caption:

Rob em Good (Metro, 1923). One Sheet (27 X 41). , Heres a great Tooker stone litho for a still funny comedy short starring pug-nosed Italian wrestler/actor Bull Montana. Its extremely clever art, and you might study it a moment to appreciate what theyve done. Theres enough back story to write a long article about Bull, but the short version is that Douglas Fairbanks befriended him after watching him wrestle and put him in several Fairbanks films. Then Oscar winner Hunt Stromberg (The Great Ziegfeld) who knew Montana from when Stromberg was a sports writer, hired the big man with the wicked sense of humor to play the hilarious double roles of The Earl of Nothingdone and The Knight of the Cauliflower in this Robin Hood spoof. There are just minor crossfold separations with some museum tape on the verso, and some small tears in the top horizontal fold. Very Fine-.
