An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) Rich Man's Folly, the 1931 John Cromwell romantic family relationship melodrama (based in the Charles Dickens novel, "Dombey and Son"; about a wealthy shipbuilder who neglects his wife and two children, and his wife and son pass away, and his daughter marries his competitor, and ultimately, the rich man forces his competitor into bankruptcy, but he comes to his senses and destroys his own company so that his daughter and her husband can have success and happiness!) starring George Bancroft, Frances Dee, Robert Ames, Juliette Compton, David Durand, and Anne Shirley (billed as "Dawn O'Day") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that any movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned anything other than a one-sheet, a trolley card, an Australian daybill, five lobby cards, and some French lobby cards from this movie until we received this glass slide! Note that this is from an incredible collection of 76 glass slides that were recently discovered! Almost all of them are from 1931 to 1933 (with a very few from before and after). We are auctioning them in 76 separate auctions, and then there will be no more from this amazing find (except for a few duplicated ones, which we will auction at a later time). Not only are many wonderful titles included, but many of the slides are in remarkable condition, and quite a few of them do not have any showtimes or days of the week handwritten in the bottom area, and many likely look like they did when they were first sent to the theater! There have been several "finds" of glass slides over the many years we have been auctioning, but this is surely one of the greatest ever and it is a wonderful opportunity to purchase some or many of these extreme rarities! Also note that glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Condition: good. There are smudges and dirt stains scattered through the slide. Maybe it can be cleaned, but likely only by a professional or talented amateur. Learn More about condition grades
