Sell Your 1918 The Bell Boy One Sheet Movie Poster
The Bell Boy is a 1918 American two-reel silent comedy film directed by Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle for the Comique film company. The film stars Arbuckle and Buster Keaton as bellboys in the Elk’s Head Hotel. They cause trouble with each other and guests. The elevator is powered by a stubborn horse, a sham robbery turns into a real one, and there is a chase on a runaway trolley. Much of the material in this film was later re-used by Keaton in his 1937 film Love Nest On Wheels. One sequence involving a mop was reused by Keaton in his last film appearance in The Scribe.

Nate D. Sanders Auctions has sold the following similar items:
Fantastic early Oscar for Norman Taurog in the category of “Best Directing” for “Skippy.” Taurog won the directing award at age 32 making him, to this day, the youngest ever recipient. He accepted the accolade on only the fourth Oscar ceremony on 10 November 1932 at the Biltmore Hotel. The movie stars his then 9 year old nephew and Oscar nominee, Jackie Cooper. At the ceremony the young star famously fell asleep on the shoulder of Best Actress nominee, Marie Dressler, who won the award later that evening and had to move the sleeping Cooper to accept it. The child star noted in his autobiography, “Please Don’t Shoot my Dog,” that during filming Taurog threatened to shoot Cooper’s dog to make the young actor cry for a scene. The film based on the comic strip by Percy Crosby, centers around the mischievous youngster, Skippy, who helps a new found friend living in a shantytown. Engraved plaque reads, “Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences / First Award / 1931”. A circular plaque underneath the statue has the words engraved, “Academy First Award / to / Norman Taurog / for Direction / of / ‘Skippy’”. The figure and film reel, composed of gold-plated britannium measuring 10.5″ tall, top the pedestal, bringing the total height to 12″. The pedestal’s diameter measures 5.25″. The award weighs 7.5 pounds. Some expected wear to statue and green felt backing under the pedestal is wearing away around the edge. Overall in very good condition.
Sold for $301,973.
