Title: ELVIS PRESLEY
Date: 1960
Size: Original 8"x10" press photograph.
Price: £200.00 conservation framed.
Comments and Condition: Probably the most famous draftee in history, Presley's stint lasted from 24 March 1958 to March 5, 1960. This shot is from the 2 March 1960 New Jersey press conference the day after he left the army in Germany. Later in April began the timely filming of 'GI Blues'. The King was back.
Fine condition.
Title: JOHN WAYNE
Date: 1948
Size: Original publicity photograph 8"x10".
Price: £350.00 conservation framed.
Comments and Condition: Absolutely compelling studio portrait, one of the best Wayne images we have ever seen, from 1948's John Ford directed '3 Godfathers', one of the overlooked classics of their collaboration, filmed in extraordinary technicolor. V. scarce. Fine condition.
Title: STEVE MCQUEEN - THE REIVERS.
Date: 1969
Size: Original Cinema Center Films 8"x10" publicity still.
Price: £130.00 conservation framed.
Comments and Condition: Sparkling image of McQueen from the picaresque comedy based on William Faulkner's Pulitzer Prize winning novel. A Mississippi boy falls in with bad company. When his grandfather leaves his brand new car unguarded for the weekend, they set out on an reckless adventure to Memphis.
V. Fine - condition.
Title: LOU COSTELLO
Date: 1942
Size: Original 8"x10" Universal portrait still.
Price: £190.00 conservation framed.
Comments and Condition: Wonderful and very early original 1942 Lou Costello studio portrait still. In 1940, despite only having supporting roles in their first film appearance 'One Night in the Tropics', Abbott and Costello stole the film with their classic routine "Who's On First?"
V. Fine - condition.
Title: THE WIZARD OF OZ
Date: 1949 re-release
Size: Original 8"x10" MGM still.
Price: £150.00 conservation framed.
Comments and Condition: A studio shot we've never seen before that shows considerable costume detail. No specific attribution (yet), but a number of significant photographers including Clarence Sinclair Bull, Virgil Apter and Eric Carpenter did work for the film. Excellent condition.
Title: THE MARX BROTHERS - A NIGHT AT THE OPERA
Date: 1948 re-release
Size: Original 8"x10" MGM still.
Price: £185.00 conservation framed.
Comments and Condition: Legendary producer Irving Thalberg brought the Marx Brothers to MGM after the box office disappointment of Paramount's 'Duck Soup'. Under his shrewd watch he brought them to the pinnacle of their commercial success with 'A Night At The Opera' and 'A Day At The Races'.
Excellent condition.
Title: THE WIZARD OF OZ
Date: 1949 re-release
Size: Original 8"x10" MGM still.
Price: £175.00 conservation framed
Comments and Condition: A beautiful rare group portrait. Not found on a lobby card. The costumes of the Cowardly Lion, Scarecrow (in the Smithsonian) and Dorothy survive more or less intact, but the Tin Man was sadly broken up.
Excellent condition.
Title: ORSON WELLES, RITA HAYWORTH - THE LADY FROM SHANGHAI
Date: 1947
Size: Original 8"x10" archive still, c.1960s.
Price: £55.00.
Comments and Condition: Difficult to date exactly (certainly no later than the 60s), a fine noir image from Welles's legendary baroque thriller, tragically mangled by Columbia but still overflowing with invention. The scene is the hall of mirrors, the film's tour-de-force climax.
Fine condition.
