NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that one of these stills is a candid image of Ronald Colman and a man we can't identify and both are holding a spur in their hands! Also note that this set of stills (and eight other sets we are currently auctioning) have a most unusual provenance. Our consignor's father worked at Paramount Studios between 1925 and 1927, and he was given a number of deluxe stills (and a few regular ones) from then-current films, and he kept them all the years since, and now they have been consigned to us! We have nine sets of these stills in this current set of auctions, and we will have a number of individual stills in our next auction of single stills. This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire these extremely rare stills (and other than some of them measuring under 8x10, which likely occurred prior to them being distributed, they are in quite nice condition, especially considering their age). Condition: good to very good. There are some creases, tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss around the edges (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
