An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) Womanhandled, the 1925 Gregory La Cava silent romantic screwball comedy ("[The Answer to 'Manhandled']"; "From the Saturday Evening Post story by Arthur Stringer"; a wacky story of a society playboy who meets a girl and falls in love, but she sees him as "soft", and she wants a real man like there are in the West, so he heads to a ranch, but finds that all the cowboys there have gone to Hollywood, and the only people left at the ranch are dudes like himself; so he hires some locals to pose as cowboys, but his girlfriend isn't fooled, but when he rescues her from a cattle stampede, she realizes he is a "real man"!) starring Richard Dix, Esther Ralston, Edmund Breese, Cora Williams, Olive Tell, and Margaret Morris. Note that the term "womanhandled" in the title refers to a man who was raised by women, and is not "manly". It seems to have completely vanished from modern vocabulary! Also note that the movie is a loose parody of a Gloria Swanson movie made the year before called "Manhandled", and the advertising for this movie included the tagline "The Answer to 'MANHANDLED'".

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 to fine. The theater that used this slide wrote the days the movie was playing in the play dates section at the bottom of the glass. Otherwise, the glass slide itself is in nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
