Important Added Info: Note that these are studio-issued 35mm slides that are produced by the studio but are not the camera original. Sometimes some or all of the slides have printing on the cardboard holder that gives the name of the movie, a credit for the photographer, and the copyright from the studio (see our images of these slides to know what information, if any, is on the holders). In the case of this set of slides, they belonged to a studio employee who received them when the movie came out, and who has kept them until the present day, when he has consigned them to us. This set is NOT the set that was sent with a presskit, and some or many of these slides might be images that were not in the presskit and not released in any other way, but we don't know, but we DO know that these slides were created either when the movie first came out, or in many cases, even before the movie was released, for advance publicity. The slides are in plastic sleeves designed to hold them, and we photographed them on a light box (sometimes we left them in the sleeves, and other times we removed them), which allows you to see the images (but of course, the quality is not neatly as good as that of the actual slides, because they are photographed and not scanned, and some of them were photographed in the plastic sleeves). In the case of THIS particular set of slides, we took four of them out and scanned them, because it is a "better" title, and we wanted you to see just how high quality they are. That means there are photos of all the slides, PLUS scans of the four, which means there are four "extra" images (because the ones scanned are also in the ones photographed). This is a very special auction of 710 extremely rare negatives and transparencies of various sizes, plus lots of sets of 35mm slides. 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 this auction is for one or more 35mm slides (some sets are VERY large!), and every one of the 254 auctions of 35mm slides we are currently running have been either photographed in a light box (or in the case of a few titles), up to 4 of the slides have been scanned expertly. If any of the slides were scanned, we have added an "eMoviePoster.com" watermark over it. The winner of this auction and ONLY the winner of this auction will, upon request, be sent the UNWATERMARKED scan(s) of any slides we scanned. However, in the vast majority of cases, we did not scan any slides, and in those cases, we can send the winner of the auction unwatermarked photos of what was on the auction, but we can't send scans of slides we did not scan! Condition: fine. The slides are exactly as they were when they were sent to the studio employee who has consigned them to us. Learn More about condition grades
