Date Sold 5/13/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 7 8x10 stills of George Raft. George Raft (born George Ranft) was a legendary tough guy actor (specializing in crime and film noir roles) from the 1920s to the 1980s. Like James Cagney, he actually WAS born in a tough neighborhood in New York City, so his tough guy persona was honestly earned! Note that he first appeared in movies in minor roles in 1929, but it took three years and seven movies before he got his big break in Howard Hughes' "Scarface" (where he played Paul Muni's coin-flipping henchman). After that, he was rushed into six movies in the rest of 1932 alone, and he remained a major star (mostly in gangster roles) for many years. Some of his other movie roles include: Each Dawn I Die, Manpower, If I Had a Million, They Drive by Night, and Some Like It Hot (in a great cameo where he played a parody of his earlier gangster roles). Note that the items in this lot are from the 1940s. Note that there is a date stamp on the back of some of the stills. That is the date that our consignor PURCHASED the still (he was active in the 1970s and 1980s), and it in no way relates to when the still is from (it is a vintage still from the date we say it is from in the auction title). We have seen several collectors over the years who like to do this with their collection, so that they could keep track of when they purchased items. Condition: good to very good.
