Auction History Result 9j353 SIGN OF THE RAM 11 8x10 stills '48 John Sturges, sexiest Susan Peters, Alexander Knox, Thaxter Date Sold 6/13/2013 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 11 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) Sign of the Ram, the 1948 John Sturges handicap wheelchair family relationship melodrama ("SHOCKING... What this woman dared for love!"; "Based upon the novel by Margaret Ferguson"; "Susan Peters returns to the screen with a distinguished co-starring cast in a powerful emotional drama!"; about the female head of an English family who is confined to a wheelchair, and she uses her handicap to manipulate and ruin the lives of everyone around her!) starring Susan Peters, Alexander Knox, Phyllis Thaxter, Peggy Ann Garner, Ron Randell, Dame May Whitty, and Allene Roberts. Note that Susan Peters was one of the most tragic, yet oddly forgotten, stories of Hollywood female stars who rise and fall in a short time. She was one of MGM's most promising young female stars in 1943, and she married actor Richard Quine, but in 1945, she was wounded in a hunting accident, and she became paralyzed from the waist down. She appeared in this movie as a wheelchair-bound actress, but without much success (1948 audiences were not very understanding about disabilities), and tragically, she divorced and starved herself to death, dying in 1952 at the age of 31.

THOUGH ONLY EIGHT OF THE STILLS ARE PICTURED, THE HIGH BIDDER ON THIS LOT WILL RECEIVE 11 STILLS FROM THIS MOVIE (but realize that on some of these lots with 9 or more stills there may be a few duplicates, mostly on post-1960 lots)! We realize there is an element of gambling to this, but we made only a small effort to find the best stills in these lots, and, if you have any willingness to gamble at all, you may find that you get some great stills that were not pictured! Please do NOT bid on this lot unless you can accept that you are only seeing eight of the stills. NOTE: On rare occasions, large lots of 9 or more black-and-white stills like this one can sometimes have one or more duplicated stills, but since we only picture 8 of the stills, if there are duplicates, they are likely not pictured. We try to note when this happens, but we may not catch it every time, so please do not bid on such lots unless you can accept this possibility. Condition: good to very good. Several of the stills have minor creases and horizontal cracks in the emulsion in various areas (with the still pictured at top left having many horizontal and vertical cracks in the emulsion), and the still pictured third at left has a crease in the lower left corner with a 1" tear.
