Auction History Result 7d023 LAST HUNT 11 color 8x10 stills 1956 Robert Taylor, Stewart Granger, Russ Tamblyn! Date Sold 6/17/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 11 Original Vintage Theatrical Color 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) The Last Hunt, the 1956 Richard Brooks cowboy western ("Stampede of 1,000 Wild Buffalo!"; "Stampede of 3,000 Wild Buffalo!"; "M-G-M presents the mighty drama of the last buffalo hunt in Cinemascope and Color!"; "MGM presents the great story in Cinemascope and Color"; about the destruction of buffalo herds through careless killing by American settlers; "Based on the novel by Milton Lott") starring Robert Taylor, Stewart Granger, Lloyd Nolan, Debra Paget, and Russ Tamblyn. Note that we have sold both a window card and a title card from this movie, and oddly, the window card describes the wild buffalo stampede as having 3,000 buffalo, while the title card describes it as 1,000! We wonder if they intended to rent 3,000 buffalo, but when they found out the cost, decided to save a lot of money and only rent one third as many. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that although these stills were "printed in Great Britain", they have full NSS information. We have been told by an expert that Columbia and MGM had a number of their color stills printed in Great Britain in the late 1950s and the early 1960s (the years vary between the two studios), no doubt because the English color printing was better than the U.S. color printing at this time. However, they were printed in Great Britain to be used in the U.S. (we have heard from many collectors who saw these color stills in U.S. theaters at the time these movies were released, but we have not heard from any English collectors who saw them used in England at that time). In the late 1960s and 1970s some studios started printing color stills like these in Italy, surely for the same reason (because Italian printers had better color printing during those years). But those stills printed in Italy were for use in the U.S., as these stills printed in Great Britain were for use in the U.S. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
