An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Public Enemy, the classic 1931 William A. Wellman family relationship romantic love triangle gangster organized crime melodrama ("A story that will startle the entire world"; "The cold-blooded hot-head whose guns roared across the 'decade of death'!") ("with a huge cast including") starring James Cagney (as Tom Powers), Jean Harlow (as Gwen Allen), Edward Woods (as Matt Doyle), Joan Blondell (as Mamie), Beryl Mercer (as Ma Powers), Donald Cook (as Mike Powers), Leslie Fenton (as Nails Nathan), Murray Kinnell (as Putty Nose), Mae Clarke (uncredited, as Kitty, the girl who Cagney hits in the face with a grapefruit!), Frankie Darro (as James Cagney's best friend, when both were boys), and Robert Emmett O'Connor (as Paddy Ryan). Note that Edward Woods was originally cast as the lead in this movie, and James Cagney was to play his friend, but after a couple of days of filming, director William Wellman had the two actors switch roles, and Cagney became a super star, and Woods only made a total of 13 movies before retiring in 1938!

Also note that although this still was "printed in Great Britain", it has full NSS information. It may have been intended to be used in both countries, but at least some movies have both these NSS stills and also English FOH stills with the same images, and we have never heard from a collector who saw the NSS stills in UK theaters. A knowledgeable collector suggests that these NSS stills were used solely in the U.S., and that perhaps studios printed them in Great Britain as a way to "use up" UK profits and avoid having to pay taxes. If anyone knows more about this still, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good to fine. The still is in very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
