Date Sold 11/26/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 5 Mae Murray 8x10 stills. Note that these stills come to us from a major collector of Paramount silent stills! We have previously auctioned a number of his stills individually, and now we are doing the remainder of them in bulk lots, by star (each in a separate bulk lot). They are all guaranteed original release silent stills, and they are surely incredibly rare! We have photographed the fronts and backs of each, both so you can see that, and also because on the stills where the title is not printed on the front, it is almost always handwritten on the back in pencil. This is an incredibly rare opportunity to obtain these great silent stills, and almost all of the remaining stills from this collection are in this set of bulk lot auctions, so this is likely your last chance to acquire these. Of course, Mae Murray (born Marie Adrienne Koenig) was an actress from the 1910s to the 1930s, who was nicknamed "The Girl with the Bee-Stung Lips". She was a major silent star at MGM in the 1910s and 1920s, but in 1926, she married a former Russian nobleman named David Mdivani, who advised her to leave MGM, and that was a disastrous move, and after he helped drain her fortune, he divorced her in 1933, and remarkably, he won custody of their daughter! She lived most of her later life in extreme poverty, and passed away in 1965 at the age of 75. Some of her movies include: The Merry Widow, Valencia (in the title role), and Circe, The Enchantress. Note that the items in this lot are mostly from the 1910s to the 1920s. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades Titles included:
