Date Sold 11/9/2014Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Now We're in the Air, the 1927 Frank R. Strayer silent airplane aviation screwball comedy (about two bumbling cousins who accidentally get into the U.S. Air Corps and end up in a runaway balloon over enemy lines, and are somehow made heroes by the enemy, and sent back over the lines to spy on their own soldiers!) starring Wallace Beery, Raymond Hatton, Louise Brooks (playing twins), Russell Simpson, and Emile Chautard. Also note that in 1926, Wallace Beery and Raymond Hatton appeared in "Behind the Front", and the public loved the comic antics of this very large man with this very small man, and they went on to make a series of similar movies, including this one. They were so popular that there was also an imitation series of similar movies starring Karl Dane and George K. Arthur! Note that cult actress Louise Brooks had a small part in this movie, but she made a big impression on moviegoers! Also note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving complete copies are thought to exist (23 minutes survives in a Czechoslovakian archive). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm].
UPDATED 11/04/2014: Note that a knowledgeable collector pointed out that this still is from the 1927 film "Now We're in the Air" and not the 1929 film "The Canary Murder Case " as we initially listed. We have updated the auction accordingly. Condition: very good. There is tiny paper loss in the top let blank corner and very minor border wear. Otherwise, the still is in really nice condition!
