Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price.


An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More)

Strike Up the Band, the 1940 Busby Berkeley romantic teenage juvenile musical comedy ("The merriest pair on the screen in a great new musical show!") starring Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland, Paul Whiteman and Orchestra, June Preisser, and William Tracy. Note that this was one of the best of the Mickey Rooney/Judy Garland pairings, directed by Busby Berkeley, and with musical support from Paul Whiteman and his Orchestra! Also note that this movie included a surreal fantasy sequence that included fruits and vegetables coming to life, and that sequence was created by Henry Rox, and animated by George Pal (several stills from that have survived, and have been auctioned by eMoviePoster.com!).
NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Important Added Info: Note that there is a diagonal crack in the lower left corner of the front and back panes of glass. The crack does not extend into the image at all. Glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline).

Condition: good. This glass slide has clear condition problems that causes it to be in less than "very good" condition. We do NOT describe those defects in words (UNLESS the defect is a crack in one or both panes of the glass, in which case we ALWAYS describe it elsewhere within the auction in words), and you can likely see some or all of them in the "large" and "super-sized" images we provide. If you are the sort who can accept a major defect, then you should bid on items in this condition grade, BUT PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THESE ITEMS UNLESS YOU CAN ACCEPT THEIR VERY CLEAR DEFECTS!
