Hans' Millions
A shopkeeper reads of his clerk's fortune.
What
A 1911 one-sheet for Hans' Millions, lettered at the foot with the maker's line of the Essanay Film Mfg. Co. of Chicago.
Why
The Commons record places the film among the American Film Company's releases of 1911, while the sheet's own foot names Essanay.
Notice
A caption at top right reads "SCHMIDT LEARNS THAT HIS FORMER CLERK IS HEIR TO A MILLION," and the Essanay Indian-head emblem sits at lower left.
“A windfall told in a grocery”
