An Original Vintage Theatrical Color 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More)

Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped, the 1938 Alfred L. Werker pirate swashbuckling adventure thriller (based on the novel by Robert Louis Stevenson; produced by Darryl F. Zanuck; set in the late 18th century, about a young Scottish heir who is kidnapped by his uncle and sent to sea, hopefully to never be seen again, but he returns with the help of a sailor he meets on the ship) starring Warner Baxter, Freddie Bartholomew, Arleen Whelan, C. Aubrey Smith, Reginald Owen, John Carradine, Nigel Bruce, Miles Mander, Ralph Forbes, H.B. Warner, Arthur Hohl, E.E. Clive, Halliwell Hobbes, and Montagu Love. Note that the posters for this movie prominently credit all top fourteen actors in the cast, which is certainly unusual for anything other than a movie with an all-star cast! Also note that this was Arleen Whelan's first real role, after a small uncredited part. In the publicity for the movie, they said that she is a "titian-haired Cinderella girl who rose almost overnight from a manicurist in a Hollywood beauty shop to a leading lady for the movies".

Important Added Info: Note that this still is from a special set of "color glos" stills, which means it was printed on a photo type of paper and have a glossier front, with more vivid colors. This is something the studios experimented with in the late 1930s and early 1940s, for both 8x10 stills and 11x14 stills. Also note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm].
