An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" [17 x 22 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Charles Ray was an actor from the 1910s to the 1940s, and was a major star in silent films. Somewhere around 1920, Mr. Ray acquired a wire-haired fox Terrier named "Whiskers", and he gave Whiskers significant parts in at least a few of his movies (and apparently, the two were inseparable). Ray passed away in 1943 at the age of 52. If anyone knows more about Whiskers, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Some of his movies include: Rio Rita, The Busher, A Yank in the R.A.F. Slightlry Dangerous, The Garden of Eden, and Tennessee Johnson. Important Added Info: Note that this still has a FACSIMILE autograph that is within the printing of the still (the still has NOT been personally autographed). Also note that this still measures 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" [17 x 22 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Note that not only does our current auction of 999 stills represent the absolute finest selection we have ever had in terms of quality of image and film, but it also represents the finest CONDITION group of stills we have ever had! Half of the stills are graded as being in "very good to fine" condition (which is our highest grade for vintage stills), but we were very strict on this, because otherwise, perhaps two thirds or three quarters of the stills would have received this grade! We downgraded stills to "very good" for pretty minor defects, and many of these might have received our "very good to fine" grade in the past. And the half of the stills that ARE in very good to fine condition would likely be graded "mint" by any other auction! This is the finest group of stills I have ever seen, and I can only hope to equal it someday! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
