A 1919 poster for the Norman Film Manufacturing Company's all-Black-cast railroad drama. Norman's biggest commercial success, built around a full-scale locomotive chase staged with real rolling stock. It circulated for years on the race-film circuit and is now lost, leaving the advertising to carry the evidence of a production that outspent most of its independent contemporaries. The railroad imagery given the whole sheet - the spectacle, not the romance, is what the exhibitor was buying. An independent cinema running at full steam.
