Date Sold 11/8/2015Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 7 1/2" x 10" [19 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Bela Lugosi was one of the top two horror actors from the 1930s (along with Boris Karloff) in movies such as Dracula, Island of Lost Souls, The Wolf Man, The Body Snatcher, and the Black Cat. His portrayal of Dracula was so memorable, that it caused movie makers to only want him to play similar roles, and in the minds of many horror fans, there is no other Dracula BUT Bela Lugosi! Note that Mr. Lugosi was born in what was then Austria-Hungary, but is now Romania. He passed away in 1956 at the age of 73. Important Added Info: Note that this great still shows Bela Lugosi with his almost 2 year old son, Bela Lugosi, Jr., who he has fooled by wearing a Santa Claus suit (in the still, he pulls down the beard to reveal who he is, and his son is very perplexed! The still has a snipe on the back from when it was first created, and it also was used many decades later in a magazine, and there are additional snipes on the back relating to that magazine usage. Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 1/2" x 10" [19 x 25 cm]. Condition: good. The still had most of its left and right blank borders trimmed off. It has some unevenness to the emulsion because of the snipes on the back, but it is mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light. There are ripples in the center of the top and bottom borders, caused by the snipes glued to the back. There are crop marks in the middle left background area in grease pencil, from when it was used in a magazine. In spite of the above defects, this wonderful still can certainly be framed and enjoyed exactly as it is! Learn More about condition grades
