An Original Vintage Theatrical 11 1/4" x 14" [29 x 36 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) George Brent was a Warner Bros. leading actor from the 1930s to the 1950s. He was frequently chosen as a leading man by Bette Davis and other top actresses. Some of his movies include: The Old Maid, 42nd Street, and Dark Victory. He was married six times, and among his wives were Ann Sheridan and Ruth Chatterton. He passed away in 1979 at the age of 75. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 11 1/4" x 14" [29 x 36 cm]. Note that this is one of 80 deluxe oversized stills (measuring 11" x 14" or similar) which were consigned to us, and they all originated from the legendary James Card Collection! We auctioned 100 other stills from this collection in our September Major Auction, and those mostly auctioned for between $30 and $250 each, with a few selling for more, with the highest selling for $535! Now we have 80 more from that collection in this set of auctions. James Card was a film preservationist who, starting in 1948, worked at the newly created George Eastman House in Rochester, New York, and he helped build their massive motion picture collection, preserving movies that had been forgotten at that time. In 1955, he discovered that Louise Brooks was living as a recluse in New York City, and he persuaded her to move to Rochester, where she wrote many letters and some books about her legendary career. Not only do these 100 oversized stills (which we are auctioning individually) have wonderful "provenance", but there is also no fear that they are not from their first release (and many of the stills have photographer stamps on the back or embossed, and some have other information on the back, and several have a stamp that identifies them as being from the "James Card Collection"!
