A herald for the film Crimson Skull. The herald is yellow with black and red text and features a black and white image from the movie in the center. The image depicts a woman tied to a tree and a man tied to a wooden ladder being confronted by a person dressed as a skeleton and a second figure with a dark hood over their face. Above the image is black and red text that reads [The Norman Film Mfg. Co. Presents the / CRIMSON SKULL / Baffling Western / Mystery Photo-Play]. Within the capital 'C' of Crimson is a skull with a spider dangling from it. Beneath the vignette is a list of the cast. At the very bottom is [ALL-COLORED CAST SIX SMASHING REELS].
