Date Sold 3/11/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 7 3/4" x 9 1/2" [20 x 24 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Street of Chance, the 1930 John Cromwell gambling poker playing crime murder melodrama ("The picture that solved the Rothstein Murder Case"; a cool story, very loosely based on the murder of professional gambler Arnold Rothstein after he refused to pay his poker losses; of a would-be professional gambler who wants to follow in his brother's footsteps, because his brother is a famous gambler, but the younger brother gets in trouble, and the older brother literally risks his life in one giant card game to try to keep his brother from making the same mistakes he did) starring William Powell, Jean Arthur, Kay Francis, Regis Toomey, and Stanley Fields NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this great photo shows a theater entrance with homemade displays for this movie, which includes the lead actors on giant playing cards, plus more! Also note that in recent auctions we have auctioned small photos of theater fronts from the 1930s and 1940s. Now we have been consigned a really cool collection of mostly 1930s 8x10 stills that show theater fronts and lobby displays (many of them have a stamp from a Boston company on the back, so it seems likely that most or all of them are from theaters in the Boston area)! All of those stills are in this set of auctions (in separate auctions). So this is a rare opportunity to purchase vintage 8x10 stills showing theater fronts from the 1930s (and since we have only auctioned a tiny number of these over all our years of auctioning, there is a good chance that it will be a long time before we have more of them). Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 3/4" x 9 1/2" [20 x 24 cm]. Condition: good to very good. The still was slightly trimmed in the blank borders and was mounted onto black paper (no doubt when it was displayed in a frame). Learn More about condition grades
