An Original Vintage Theatrical 7 1/4" x 8" Movie Still (Learn More) Father Takes a Wife, the 1941 Jack Hively family relationship romantic comedy ("Glorious Gloria, More glamorous than ever, as she returns to the screen in a radiant, racy comedy of man-trouble among three women..."; "In this radiant, racy comedy of man-trouble two shining stars put a twinkle into love among three women...") starring Adolphe Menjou, Gloria Swanson, John Howard, Desi Arnaz (in his second movie role!), Helen Broderick, and Florence Rice NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the still shows a great candid image of Gloria Swanson wearing a "smart gown" that was specially designed for her for this movie by Rene Hubert, her favorite dress designer! Note that there is a stamp on the back of the still (from the studio that distributed it). Also note that a paper snipe was glued to the back of the still, and then folded over to the front. This was done rather than gluing the snipe to the back, so that the snipe could be unfolded and the still could be displayed with the snipe unfolded, which would let moviegoers read the information on the snipe in the lobby (and of course, the snipe would be folded backwards, so it would not show). This was done with many stills of the 1930s, but often, the snipes are either partially or completely lost, because it is easier for them to be torn off. UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, THE SNIPE DOES NOT HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE FRONT OF THE STILL! The still measures 7 1/4" x 8", but it does not appear to be trimmed. Condition: very good to fine. There are faint emulsion scuffs scattered throughout the still, but they are truthfully not very noticeable except when the still is tilted to the light. Learn More about condition grades
