An Original Vintage Color 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Still (Learn More)

Will Rogers was born in 1879, and people today can't imagine how popular he was and how much influence he had! He was part Cherokee Native American Indian, and he was a champion horse rider and lasso artist (film of this is on Youtube, and it is incredible what he could do!), and he started in Wild West shows and then vaudeville, but he soon started making movies, and he appeared in 33 very popular silent western movies, performing his own stunts. But when sound came in, unlike many other silent stars who could not adapt to talking pictures, Rogers became an even bigger star than ever, as audiences loved his homespun common sense humor. He starred in an astonishing 20 movies in 7 years, and he wrote daily newspaper articles that appeared all over the world, and he almost surely could have been elected President, had he wanted the office! In 1935, while on an airplane trip with famous aviator Wiley Post, the plane crashed, and both men were killed. Will was 55. Rogers' family made the unusual decision to withdraw all his films from circulation (out of respect!), which resulted in future generations not seeing his work, and this has caused him to be not very well known today, but he was a giant in his time!
Important Added Info: Note that this photo was printed on a thin non-glossy paper and was created in 1935 to be inserted into ready made frames that were sold at that time (people were much more likely to buy a frame if it had an image in it, and at that time they always used famous movie stars!). Also note that this still has a FACSIMILE autograph that is within the printing of the still (the still has NOT been personally autographed).

Condition: fair. There are two creases across the bottom of the still and faint ink transfer in the bottom center. The top left blank corner has become detached but is still present.
