Item description

Vintage original 8 x 10 in. US single-weight glossy photograph from the teens silent film comedy, PLEASE GET MARRIED, released in 1919 by Metro Pictures Corporation and directed by John Ince. The image depicts young lovers Muriel Ashley (Viola Dana) and Ferdinand Oliver Watson (Antrim Short) cautiously watching her father, John Harper Ashley (Harry Todd, far right) conversing with two men as her mother (Margaret Campbell) watches the men from behind the young couple. It is in very good+ condition as shown. Plot: Muriel Ashley is engaged to Ferdie Walton. Ferdie's father opposes the marriage while Muriel's parents favor it. The couple are married by a strange parson who wanders into the Ashley home. Then, after they leave for the honeymoon, Ferdie's father discovers the clergyman is a crook. He notifies the hotel and the young couple are ordered out. They return to the bridal suite by way of a window, but the hotel catches fire and they escape. They go to the Ashley home where they learn they are actually not married. The "clergyman" who married them breaks into the house and is captured. Rev. Dr. Jenkins identifies him, however, as a genuine clergyman who has been suffering loss of memory, thus the marriage turns out to be legal after all.
