eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result 2s136 LOT OF 102 COLOR & B&W MOVIE, TV & PUBLICITY 8x10 STILLS OF LILLIAN GISH '60s-80s portraits Date Sold 9/22/2013Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 102 color & B&W movie, TV & publicity stills showing Lillian Gish (the ones in which she appears younger are re-releases from the 1960s or 1970s). She was born in 1893. One of the most legendary actresses of early cinema, with lead roles in Birth of a Nation and Intolerance. When sound came in she oddly switched almost entirely to the stage (as Paul Muni would do a few years later), just when most stage actors were moving TO Hollywood. She did have some choice movie roles in later years, but none more memorable than as the rightous Miss Cooper in Charles Laughton's Night of the Hunter (who can forget her singing "Bringing in the Sheaves" with crazy preacher Robert Mitchum?), and in 1987, at the age of 92, she appeared alongside Bette Davis in "The Whales of August"! She passed away in 1993, at the age of 99. She is also best remembered for her roles in The Wind and Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ. Note that the items in this lot are from the 1960s to the 1980s. IMPORTANT! This group of stills contains MANY multiples of the same exact stills (primarily the publicity stills). There may be more than the EIGHT different images that are pictured included in this lot, but there may be only a few other different images, with the rest being multiples of those eight. It is also possible that there are many examples of any one or several of the pictured stills, and only one example of one or more of the pictured stills. We realize that there is a clear "gambling" element in bidding on these stills, so please bear that in mind before placing a bid on this lot, and know that we CAN'T open up the lot or answer any questions about it! Measurements: from 5" x 8" to 8" x 10"Condition: very good to fine. A few of the stills have minor defects but most are in excellent condition. Learn More about condition grades Titles included:
