Date Sold 2/18/2021Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Cecil B. DeMille's The Ten Commandments, the classic 1923 Cecil B. DeMille silent religious Biblical epic ("The mightiest dramatic spectacle of all the ages"; "Story by Jeanie MacPherson") starring Theodore Roberts (as Moses), Rod La Rocque, Leatrice Joy, Nita Naldi, Charles De Roche (as Rameses), Estelle Taylor, Julia Faye, Terrence Moore, and Richard Dix. Note that in this, Cecil B. DeMille's first version of this movie, the movie is essentially split into two parts, one that is "modern" (set in 1923), and the other with the Biblical portion. Of course, DeMille remade the movie in 1959 with Charlton Heston in the lead role, and it was solely the Biblical portion that he used when he re-made the movie. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this wonderful still was found in a scrapbook of stills from silent D.W. Griffith films. It has a printed snipe on the back that refers to "the late Theodore Roberts". Since Roberts died in 1928, either this is a re-release still, or it is an original still that had the snipe added at a later time, perhaps by a media outlet after Roberts' passing. It is surely from the 1930s or earlier. Please do not bid unless you can accept the uncertainty as to its origin. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
