Auction History Result 2a658 MYRNA LOY 8x10.25 still 1940 she's reading a fashion magazine in her dressing room at MGM! Date Sold 11/25/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Myrna Loy was an actress from the 1920s to the 1980s. She was born Myrna Adele Williams in 1905, and amazingly, she made 78 movies between 1925 and 1933, and she FINALLY got her big break when she signed with MGM, and the next year she made both "The Thin Man" and "Manhattan Melodrama", and the rest, as they say, was history! But what took Hollywood and film goers so long to recognize her amazing beauty and talent? In her early years of making movies, her "exotic" look led her to sometimes be cast as an Asian or Polynesian! She remained a major box office star for over two decades, and she had wonderful chemistry with ALL of her leading men, including William Powell, Cary Grant, Clark Gable, and many others! Some of her other movies include: The Best Years of Our Lives, Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House, The Thin Man, Cheaper By the Dozen, and countless others. She passed away in 1993 at the age of 88. Important Added Info: Note that the text on the back tells that Miss Loy is about to make "Mr. Co-ed" with William Powell. Someone saw that, and knowing the still was from 1940, assumed that they were talking about "I Love You Again", and wrote the information about that movie at the bottom of the back of the still, but actually, "Mr. Co-Ed" was shelved and never made (and Miss Loy did then go on to make "I Love You Again"). Condition: good. There are two long diagonal creases that run across the top and left background areas (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
