A print of The Green Eyed Monster, 1919, by an unknown designer.
The Green Eyed Monster is considered a lost film, although surviving material indicates that it was a comic drama about greed in the railroad industry and also featured a love triangle. The film's six-sheet poster highlights the exceptional cost of producing the film, including an $80,000 trainwreck (approximately $1 million today) and a million dollars worth of railroad equipment (approximately $18.5 million today). These figures may not be entirely accurate as such numbers were often exaggerated and sensationalized on advertising materials by silent film companies of the day. Current research indicates that the film actually used old stock footage for the train wreck rather than paying a fortune to stage a new one.
