Important Added Info: Note that these stills, which measure 16" x 20" [41 x 51 cm], were created in a set of 13, and we are auctioning all 13 of them, so it is a complete set. IN THE PAST, WE WERE CONSIGNED SETS OF 11 OF THIS SEVENTEEN DIFFERENT TIMES, AND THAT CAUSED US TO BELIEVE THAT THE COMPLETE SET CONTAINED 11 PRINTS. BUT WE WERE CONSIGNED A SET OF 13 in AUGUST OF 2021 AND NOW WE HAVE BEEN CONSIGNED A SECOND FULL SET (which was consigned to us by a store owner who received it right when the movie came out)! How to explain that? The original set we auctioned in August 2021 was consigned to us from the estate of a man who worked for 20th Century-Fox when this movie came out, and we strongly suspect that there WERE originally 13 prints, but that two of the prints were deleted before they were ever distributed, and that would explain the above (that this employee received the 13 before the decision was made to eliminate two, but theaters got sets of 11). This is "guess work", but it seems VERY likely based on everything we know. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Because there are 13 of them and because they are on a fairly heavyweight paper stock, they will need to be sent in a large flat package, because rolling them would surely lessen their condition. Condition: very good to fine. Each has minor edge wear and a few light creases at right. They are otherwise in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
