A Group of 2 Photographic Negatives (measure 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) (Learn More) Audie Murphy was an actor from the 1940s to the 1960s. He was the most decorated American combat soldier of World War II. After Murphy played himself in "To Hell and Back" he went on to a long career in movies, marred by his personal difficulties (at least partially a result of his war experiences, though it is noted that he had mood swings even as a child). Some of his movies include: Texas, Brooklyn and Heaven, The Kid from Texas, The Red Badge of Courage, Night Passage, and Apache Rifles. He passed away in 1971 at the age of 46 when the private plane he was a passenger in crashed. Important Added Info: Note that these are the negatives that were in the camera when the photographer shot each photo. We have taken a scan of the negatives as they appear, and also a special scan of the negatives that show the "positive image" of each. We will provide the winning bidder of this auction with those positive image scans. They often (but not always) have retouching on the emulsion side, and negative numbers written in India ink on the front. Depending on the studio some 8x10 negatives may be trimmed or have numbers or information embedded into the sides of the negative. Many smaller format camera original negatives do not have retouching on them or numbers due to their smaller size. 8x10, 5x7 and 4x5 negatives were primarily the sizes used in the 1920s through the 1940s. 2 1/4" Rollei negatives and 35mm negatives became an industry standard in the 1950s and beyond until the digital revolution in the late 1990s and early 2000s. This is a very special auction of 444 extremely rare negatives and transparencies of various sizes. EVERY single one in this auction is either "studio issued" (meaning it was created by the studio and sent to theaters and movie outlets), OR it is a "camera original" (meaning it was the actual negative that was in the camera when the photographer took the picture). Every auction clearly identifies which they are, and there are no items being auctioned that are not either "studio issue" or "camera originals". We have divided them by type and size. Also note that every one of these 444 auctions have had their transparencies and/or negatives scanned expertly. This auction contains that scan with the "eMoviePoster.com" watermark over it. ONLY the winner of this auction will, on request, be sent UNWATERMARKED scan(s) of the items in this auction, which will both save them the time and expense of scanning them themselves, and also allow them to make high quality positive prints of the items they purchased. Condition: very good to fine. The negative is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
