Date Sold 10/25/2015Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 7 3/4" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] REPRODUCTION Still (Learn More) Paramount is a entertainment production company from 1912 to the present. They are the fifth oldest surviving film studio in the world. Paramount Pictures dates its existence from the founding of the Famous Players Film Company by Adolph Zukor. That same year, Jesse L. Lasky opened his Lasky Feature Play Company, and both companies released their films through a start-up company called Paramount Pictures Corporation (and their first movies were "released through the Paramount Program"). In 1916, Zukor maneuvered a three-way merger of his Famous Players, the Lasky Company, and Paramount into the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation. The new corporation absorbed other firms (such as Artcraft in 1918) and eventually was simply known as Paramount Pictures. The early history of Paramount is fascinating and filled with backstabbing, and anyone interested will be greatly rewarded by reading about it! Important Added Info: Note that this REPRODUCTION still has been personally autographed (signed) by ELVEN actors who worked for Paramount Pictures: Lyle Talbot, Ben Johnson, Lou Adler, Dorothy Lamour, Bob Hope, Dickie Moore, and there are five other signatures we cannot identify. Since two of the autographs are dated 1992, we would suspect they were all signed at that time (or near that time). Also note that this still measures 7 3/4" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Our consignor is a very longtime collector of movie paper who purchased this item years ago, and it was signed, but he doesn't know how the signature was obtained, and he (and we) believe it is likely that the autograph is authentic. As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
