An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Say It With Songs, the 1929 Lloyd Bacon family relationship father/son crime prison musical melodrama ("Based on story by Darryl Francis Zanuck & Harvey Gates"; of course, Zanuck would go on to become one of the most important producers that ever lived!; about a man who goes to prison for killing his wife's lover; when he gets out, he goes to see his young son, but more tragedy occurs) starring Al Jolson, Davey Lee, Marian Nixon, Holmes Herbert, Kenneth Thomson, and John Bowers NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the theater that created this mammoth head of Al Jolson to put on top of the theater front was proud of what they had made, and they took this picture of the theater front and had it posted in the local newspaper, where they said that it was "believed to be the largest of its kind ever displayed in this section of the country". Included with the photo is the newspaper clipping that reproduces the photo (see our images). Also note that in recent auctions we have auctioned small photos of theater fronts from the 1930s and 1940s, which came from a scrapbook that the man who created those theater fronts compiled. The scrapbook also contained eight larger photos (most close to 8x10), and we are auctioning those final eight larger photos in this set of auctions (each in its own auction). In addition, we are also auctioning a different really cool collection of mostly 1930s 8x10 stills that show theater fronts and lobby displays (many of them have a stamp from a Boston company on the back, so it seems likely that most or all of them are from theaters in the Boston area)! All of those stills are in that set of auctions (in separate auctions). Also note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Condition: fair. There is paper loss in the lower right and yellowed tape in each corner. The newspaper clipping is mounted to paper and has paper loss around the edges (see our images).
