Auction History Result p191 LUCILLE BALL TV 8x10 movie still '57 glamorous in Las Vegas! Date Sold 1/10/2008Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage 8" x 10" Television Still (Learn More) Lucille Ball was an actress from the 1930s to the 1980s. While many people only know her as the star of TV's "I Love Lucy" (perhaps the most successful TV sitcom of all time), she had a long career at RKO for over ten years prior, and some of her movies include: Top Hat, Stage Door, Mame, Valley of the Sun, and the Dark Corner. In addition to appearing on the "I Love Lucy" TV show (and its several follow-up shows without her husband, former bandleader Desi Arnaz), the couple also made the movies "The Long, Long Trailer", and "Forever Darling". She passed away in 1989 at the age of 77. Important Added Info: Note that the snipe tells how Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz made five special 60-minute "Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz shows", "each the equivalent of a feature-length film", that were shown on TV in the late 1950s (they are now known as the "The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour"). I had never heard of these special 60-minute programs before, and wonder why they do not seem to be ever shown! If anyone knows more about these five 60-minute TV shows, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that this still is from the third of the five shows, called "Lucy Hunts Uranium", and it was filmed on location in Las Vegas, and in the cast were Vivian Vance and William Frawley, as usual, but also Fred MacMurray and his wife June Haver, in their first appearance together! Also note that a paper snipe was glued to the back of the still, and then folded over to the front. This was done rather than gluing the snipe to the back, so that the snipe could be unfolded and the still could be displayed with the snipe unfolded, which would let moviegoers read the information on the snipe in the lobby (and of course, the snipe would be folded backwards, so it would not show). This was done with many stills of the 1930s, but often, the snipes are either partially or completely lost, because it is easier for them to be torn off. UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, THE SNIPE DOES NOT HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE FRONT OF THE STILL! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
