An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More)

Seven Footprints to Satan, the 1929 Benjamin Christensen psychological supernatural horror mystery thriller ("Will raise the devil with your funny bone!"; based on the novel by A. Merritt; with intertitles by Cornell Woolrich, which he wrote using the William Irish pseudonym) starring Thelma Todd, Creighton Hale, Sheldon Lewis, William V. Mong, Sojin Kamiyama (billed as "Sojin"), Angelo Rossitto, Loretta Young (in an early uncredited role, as one of Satan's victims!), and Winter Blossom. Note that this is one of the coolest and most bizarre movies of this time! It had been thought to be lost for many years, but an Italian print of the sound version surfaced (the movie had been filmed as both a silent and a sound movie). The plot concerns a young man and woman who get mixed up with stolen jewels, and they end up at the home of Satan himself, where there is a bizarre masquerade party, and the woman is threatened with torture by some of the guests to make her tell where the jewels are! SPOILER ALERT! At the end of the movie, the two leads escape from Satan's house, but the ordeal has driven both of them completely insane! Look for Angelo Rossitto of "Freaks" fame in a major role as a dwarf at the party, a starring role by beautiful Thelma Todd, and an uncredited appearance by Loretta Young as one of Satan's victims. There is also a gorilla that attacks a nude woman, and much, much more! Bizarrely, there are many reviews of this movie online, but none of them state exactly who it was who plays Satan! Sadly, virtually no paper exists on this movie. Previous to our offering this glass slide, we once sold a herald, but otherwise nothing.

Important Added Info: Note that glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline).

Condition: very good to fine. The glass slide itself is in nice condition and the cardboard holder has some minor smudges (as can be seen in our super-sized images).
