Important Added Info: Note that this set of stills (and eight other sets we are currently auctioning) have a most unusual provenance. Our consignor's father worked at Paramount Studios between 1925 and 1927, and he was given a number of deluxe stills (and a few regular ones) from then-current films, and he kept them all the years since, and now they have been consigned to us! We have nine sets of these stills in this current set of auctions, and we will have a number of individual stills in our next auction of single stills. This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire these extremely rare stills (and other than some of them measuring under 8x10, which likely occurred prior to them being distributed, they are in quite nice condition, especially considering their age). Note that these stills have been slightly trimmed and now measure 7 3/4" x 9 3/4" [20 x 25 cm]. Also note that these are deluxe stills printed on double weight paper stock. Condition: very good. The stills have been slightly trimmed in the blank borders. We don't know for certain if this was done prior to them being distributed, but we think it likely, because our consignor obtained them directly from the studio (see above). They are otherwise in nice condition, especially considering their age. Learn More about condition grades
