An Original Vintage Theatrical 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" Movie Still (Learn More) Men with Wings, the 1938 William A. Wellman airplane aviation pilot romantic love triangle melodrama (a complete history of aviation from Kitty Hawk through the then present day of 1938, with the fictional framing device of three friends who become interested in aviation as children, and all grow up to play important parts in its development, and they have a love triangle!) starring Fred MacMurray, Ray Milland, Louise Campbell, Andy Devine, Lynne Overman, Porter Hall, Walter Abel, Kitty Kelly, Donald O'Connor (in his first credited role, as Fred MacMurray's character as a young boy!), and Virginia Weidler. Note that many people consider this to be a "forgotten classic". It inspired countless young people who saw it in their youth to become pilots, and William Wellman, who had directed "Wings", was able to do so much more with the aviation sequences in this movie, and it deserves to be "re-discovered". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the still shows a great candid image of star Louise Campbell greeting Major Alexander P. de Seversky, who just set the world speed record for flying from New York to L.A. (he did it in 10 hours and 3 minutes, which would be a MIGHTY slow flight today!). Also note that there is information about the still printed on the back. The still measures 7 1/2" x 9 1/2", but it does not appear to be trimmed. There is a stamp on the back of the still that reads, "CREDIT WILL BE APPRECIATED PARAMOUNT PHOTO BY DON ENGLISH". Condition: very good to fine. There are a few faint emulsion scuffs scattered around the edges of the still, but they are truthfully not very noticeable at all except when the still is tilted to the light.
