An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) Adorable, the 1933 William Dieterle (billed as "Wilhelm Dieterle") romantic comedy ("Happy-Romantic-Lilting-Superb!"; "A Joyous Romance in Rhythm"; "Story by Paul Frank and Billie Wilder [Billy Wilder]"; "Music by Werner Richard Heymann"; the age old story of a beautiful princess who pretends to be a poor commoner, and she falls in love with a worker, but the Prime Minister of her country wants her to marry a prince she has never met) starring Janet Gaynor, Henri Garat (billed as "Henry Garat"), Sterling Holloway, C. Aubrey Smith, and Herbert Mundin. Note that this movie was made two years after director William Dieterle emigrated from Germany to the United States, and he is billed under his birth name of Wilhelm Dieterle. Also, this is one of the earliest U.S. movies for legendary director/writer Billy Wilder after HE emigrated from Germany, and he is billed under the name of "Billie" Wilder (especially odd, because his birth name was Samuel Wilder!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: 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: fine. This glass slide is in really excellent condition, and we feel that EVERY collector would be happy to own it. It IS possible it may have a MINOR defect or defects, but nothing at all significant. But we bet many dealers would call items in this grade "mint" or "near mint"! Learn More about condition grades
