Vintage original 6.75 x 8.75 in. US double-weight matte photograph of silent film actor and comedian REECE GARDNER c.1915.
 
Taken during his association with the Triangle Film Company's "Keystone Comedies" brand headed by Mack Sennett, he is depicted in an interior publicity shot that was taken by the acclaimed photographer, Fred Hartsook. This example was unused and is in very fine condition. There is a "Triangle-Keystone" stamp on the verso. He made only one film at Keystone, The Village Blacksmith, so this photograph was issued in 1916 to publicize their star.
 
*"Reece Gardner was born on August 3, 1893 in Union City, Tennessee, USA. He was an actor, known for The Broken Coin (1915), The Primeval Test (1913) and The Village Blacksmith (1916). He died on August 27, 1954 in Los Angeles, California."
