Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from the first U.S. release of this classic Fritz Lang movie is beyond rare! We auctioned an entire set of lobby cards 22 years ago, and a single card from that set was reconsigned to us 4 years ago, but other than that, we never sold any first release U.S. movie paper, not even a still. Now we have been consigned two first release U.S. stills (which we are auctioning in two separate auctions), and they both have the studio printing on the back that guarantees they are surely from the 1929 first U.S. release! Condition: very good. There is a tiny brown stain in the upper left blank border and some small areas of surface emulsion loss in the lower left blank border. Otherwise, the still is in really excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
