NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this Czech still measures 8 3/4" x 11 1/4" [22 x 29 cm]. It was found in a Czech photo archive, and it has Czech stamps on the back. Because there is pencil writing on the back that is cut off, it would seem that the still must have been trimmed, but if so, it was done extremely neatly, and there must have been very wide white borders to begin with. Condition: good to very good. It appears the still was slightly and neatly trimmed (see above; only white blank borders were affected). Learn More about condition grades
