Important Added Info: Note that these stills are printed on Velox paper, but we believe them to surely be original stills. Sometimes, studios would run out of stills and have extras printed on different stock. Condition: good. Each has a censor stamp with pen writing in the upper right corner, a stain in the left edge (one with tiny paper loss) and a few areas of discoloration but otherwise they are in pretty nice condition.
