The Son of Wallingford

The Son of Wallingford is a 1921 American silent comedy drama film directed by George Randolph Chester and Lillian Josephine Chester and starring Wilfrid North, Tom Gallery and Antrim Short. It is based on George Chester's novel The Son of Wallingford about a confidence trickster, itself inspired by his Cosmopolitan articles and an earlier hit play Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford. It was shot at Vitagraph's Flatbush Studios in Brooklyn. It was released by Vitagraph a couple of months before a Paramount Pictures version of Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford.
