Date Sold 10/26/2021Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 5 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Key Book Stills (Learn More) Wolf Song, the 1929 Victor Fleming romantic cowboy western (Cooper is a fur trapper who has great success with women, but then he falls hard for beautiful Mexican Lupe Velez, and her father disapproves, and he goes off with her, abandoning her for a while to be with his fur trapper pals, but then he returns in the nick of time to rescue her from an Indian leader!) starring Gary Cooper, Lupe Velez, Louis Wolheim, Constantine Romanoff, and Michael Vavitch. Note that Cooper was notorious for having affairs with almost all of his female co-stars in his early movies, and he had a particularly notorious affair with Velez during the making of this movie! An odd bit of trivia is that the movie contained a very brief full-frontal nude shot of Gary Cooper that was quite controversial at the time! Also note that this movie was silent, but by the time it was released, "talking" movies were all the craze, so three songs were added to the movie (two sung by Velez, and one sung by Russ Columbo), so that Paramount could advertise the movie as being "sound". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this set of stills has a great provenance! Johnny Crawford, who first came to fame as the son in the TV series "The Rifleman" and later became a band leader loved movies, and early on he collected many movie stills and more. This set of 8x10 stills was consigned to us from his collection! Note also that the stills are glued to a linen-like backing (we think it is highly likely that these are key book stills, and that someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the top of the still, no doubt so it could be put in a frame). Condition: very good. As noted above, approximately 1" of the top edge of each key book still was neatly trimmed off. Each has a few light scuffs and tiny indentations that are mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light and some creases around the edges. The still pictured second at left has some paper loss at top that mostly affects the blank border (still backed by the linen-like material). Other than the above the key book stills are in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
