The Cameraman, Half-Sheet

A cameraman cranks while a machine gun fires.

What

A 1928 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer half-sheet for The Cameraman, an American silent romantic comedy.

Why

Edward Sedgwick directed it with Buster Keaton uncredited, and Marceline Day co-starred.

Notice

The title tumbles in pink capitals down a diagonal toward the camera's tripod, and the printer's line runs along the foot.

“A camera in the crossfire”
