Important Added Info: Note that in October and November of 2017, we auctioned a wonderful collection of around 60 photos (most measured 3.5x5.25, but some measured slightly smaller) that were taken by a man who worked at a large movie theater in the late 1930s and early 1940s. He created wonderful theater fronts and homemade posters (some that were displayed outside the theater and some inside the theater), and after he finished making his displays, he would take a picture of each and then he put them in a scrapbook. Collectors rightfully bid aggressively on these photos, and the best of them auctioned for hundreds of dollars each! Now we are offering another 32 photos from this amazing scrapbook, and after this, there will just be a few bulk lots of the remaining photos (either because they are from much lesser movies or are in lesser condition). So this is the last chance to acquire these very rare to find photos of original theater fronts and local theater displays from this time period. Each of the 32 photos is in a separate auction with this paragraph on them. Condition: very good. The photo has minor wear around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
