The massive castle set was designed by Lloyd Wright, son of famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright. It featured a real concrete floor and a drawbridge constructed out of wood-covered steel. Due to the shear size and cost of the set, Fairbanks would later reuse portions of it in “The Thief of Bagdad” (1924)
