Auction History Result 5y104 TOAST OF NEW YORK glass slide '37 Frances Farmer, Cary Grant, Edward Arnold, Jack Oakie Date Sold 7/12/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) The Toast of New York, the 1937 Rowland V. Lee New York City Wall Street financier romantic comedy ("Based on 'Book of Daniel Drew' by Bouck White and the story 'Robber Barons' by Matthew Josephson"; loosely based on the real life of Jim Fisk, one of the great Wall Street tycoons of the late 1800s, with Frances Farmer playing his mistress) starring Edward Arnold, Cary Grant, Frances Farmer, Jack Oakie, Donald Meek, and Gavin Gordon. Note that this movie was originally called "The Robber Barons", and the title was not changed until late in production, which is why the still code for this movie is "R.B." There is a brief montage sequence in the movie called "The Seven Temptations", and Frances Farmer appears in that montage, sometimes wearing a black wig. It seems likely that this sequence was originally much longer, but that it was cut down for the final print, for unknown reasons. 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: very good to fine. The slide does not have a cardboard holder, but rather there is black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of older glass slides. When we auction slides that have a cardboard holder, we provide a separate image of how the cardboard holder looks, but when we auction slides with the black tape (like this one) we only provide the scan of the glass slide image, because that really is about all there is to see.
