Miracle on 34th Street (released in other English-speaking countries as "The Big Heart"), the classic 1947 George Seaton New York City Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade heart-warming Christmas holiday family romantic legal lawyer melodrama ("Story by Valentine Davies"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a man who insists he is the one and only Santa Claus, and he ultimately proves that he is!) starring Maureen O'Hara (as Doris Walker), John Payne (as Fred Gailey), Edmund Gwenn (winner of the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; as Kris Kringle, the real Santa Claus!), Gene Lockhart (as the judge who would be committing political suicide if he rules there is no Santa Claus!), Porter Hall (as Mr. Sawyer), William Frawley, Jerome Cowan (as the District Attorney), Philip Tonge (as Julian Shellhammer), Natalie Wood (as Susan Walker, the little girl who doesn't believe in Santa Claus), Alvin Greenman (as Alfred), Harry Antrim (as Mr. Macy), Herbert Heyes (as Mr. Gimble), Thelma Ritter (as Peter's Mother), Jack Albertson (as the Post Office mail sorter), and James Seay (as Dr. Pierce). Note that in an ironic twist, this all-time Christmas favorite was not viewed favorably by studio chief Darryl F. Zanuck. He did not think it would do well, and so he had it released in June, rather than the obvious December, and he instructed the publicity department to "hide" the fact that it was a Christmas movie!

Important Added Info: how cool are these wardrobe test photos!

All four have three punch holes in the left border, typical of wardrobe test photos from this period.

Condition: good to very good. All four have some light darkening and rippling around the edges (see our images).
