An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 8" x 11" [20 x 28 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) Thirteen Hours by Air, the 1936 Mitchell Leisen airplane aviation murder mystery crime melodrama (about an airline pilot on a San Francisco to New York City flight, who makes a bet that he can take a beautiful woman to dinner after they land, but it turns out she is involved in murder and jewel robbery, so things get really complicated!) starring Fred MacMurray, Joan Bennett, Zasu Pitts, John Howard, Bennie Bartlett, Grace Bradley, Alan Baxter, Brian Donlevy, Ruth Donnelly, Fred Keating, and Adrienne Marden. Note that the title of the movie refers to the time of the transcontinental flight, which, in 1936, took 13 hours, and of course, in today's world is just a few hours! Also note that a major plot point in the movie concerned the air hostesses, who had to sign an agreement not to marry as a condition of accepting the job, and two of the actresses in the movie did not want to sign the agreement! We assume that no company in today's world can enforce such a clause, but the world was a very different place in 1936! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, printed on a deluxe heavyweight paper stock. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic.
