Important Added Info: Note that this is a "color-glos" still. This was a special kind of color printing that the studios experimented with in the late 1930s and 1940s. It has a different effect than regular color printing, and color-glos stills were made in both an 8x10 and 11x14 format, primarily only for major releases. They are far more rare than regular color or black & white stills. Condition: very good. There is a 1" tear near the center of the bottom border and a 1/4" tear in the right of the bottom blank border, but otherwise, the still is in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
