Auction History Result 6w091 DECEPTION glass slide '32 Leo Carillo is a promoter who works with slick blonde Thelma Todd! Date Sold 8/30/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) Deception, the 1932 Lewis Seiler (billed as "Lew Seiler") sports wrestling football romantic love triangle crime melodrama ("A Smart Promoter and a Slick Blonde take a Sap for a Fall!"; "A slick blonde and a racketeering promoter take a sap for a fall!"; "Dazzled by fame - then swept off his feet by a dame!"; "Story by Nat Pendleton"; the old story of a star athlete who becomes a professional to get much needed money, and a beautiful vamp seduces him away from his faithful girlfriend, but he wakes up just in time, and in this case, the sports involved are college football and pro wrestling) starring Leo Carrillo, Dickie Moore ("Courtesy of Hal Roach"), Nat Pendleton, Thelma Todd, and Barbara Weeks. Note that Thelma Todd was only fourth billed, but the producers of the movie wisely recognized that her beauty (and her risque character of the wrestler's mistress) would greatly help sell the movie, and so she is prominently pictured on the poster (and second and third billed Moore and Pendleton are nowhere to be seen; this is ironic, since third billed Pendleton was also the source of the original story for the movie!).

Important Added Info: Glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Condition: fine. The glass slide itself is in nice condition and the cardboard holder has some minor smudges (as can be seen in our super-sized images). Learn More about condition grades
