The Big Gamble, the 1931 Fred Niblo gambling life insurance fraud romantic crime melodrama ("Story by Octavus Roy Cohen"; a contrived but fun story of a professional gambler who owes a mobster a lot of money, and he offers to take out life insurance for $100,000 and then kill himself so that the mobster will get the money; the mobster agrees to the deal but tells him that the only way he can collect the money is if the man waits a year to kill himself, and if he takes a fake "life" who can "inherit the money"; the mobster sets him up with a woman whose brother is also in trouble with the mobster, and the mobster tells her she can square her brother's debt by going along with the fake marriage; naturally, the two fall in love and decide life is worth living, but they have to figure out how to deal with the mobster) starring William Boyd (billed as "Bill Boyd"), Dorothy Sebastian, Warner Oland, James Gleason, and Zasu Pitts. Note that this movie is a remake of the 1926 movie "Red Dice" starring Rod La Rocque.

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.
