An Original Vintage Theatrical 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More)

Chain Lightning, the 1950 Stuart Heisler post-World War II (WWII) military test pilot airplane aviation thriller ("There's a new Bogart thrill in the sky!"; " - with that special brand of Bogart romance"; "The screen's biggest bolt of Bogart -- from Warner Bros."; "It Hits With Thunderbolt Force!"; "What an action role! He's a test pilot for jet planes!"; "Suggested by a Story by J. Redmond Prior") starring Humphrey Bogart, Eleanor Parker, Raymond Massey, Richard Whorf, James Brown, and Morris Ankrum. Note that the producers of this movie used an unusual tagline, "with that special brand of Bogart romance", which is certainly not how you would think of Bogart nowadays, but I guess in 1950 it made sense to advertise him that way!

Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm]. Also note that this still appears in every way to be original U.S. release EXCEPT that there is one very tiny line of French type in the lower right. It reads, "IMPRIME AUX ETATS-UNIS D'AMERIQUE". A collector has told us that he believes this means the still was printed for use in areas that included French-speaking parts of Canada, but that it WAS printed in the U.S., and that makes complete sense to us! So it is an original still from 1949, but it was printed partially for use in French-speaking Canada. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Condition: good to very good. The still was used in a newspaper or magazine and there are some printer marks in the top and bottom borders. There is a tiny tear near the center of the top border that has tape stains on the front and back. Fortunately, the above defects have no effect on the image area.
