Note: Set of two photographs depicting the famous scenes of mechanical cogs from *Modern Times*, a film directed by and starring Charlie Chaplin, released in 1936. Considered one of the absolute masterpieces of world cinema, this film marks the final appearance of the character of the Tramp in a feature film. Through a satire of industrialization, assembly-line work, and modern dehumanization, Chaplin delivers a work that is at once burlesque, socially conscious, and deeply humanistic. The images of gears and machinery rank among the most iconic sequences in the history of 20th-century cinema. Period promotional photographs related to *Modern Times* are particularly sought after by collectors of classic Hollywood cinema.
