Auction History Result 3y0229 EDWARD WOODS deluxe 10.75x13.75 still 1931 great portrait by Elmer Fryer, making Public Enemy! Date Sold 3/14/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 10 3/4" x 13 3/4" [27 x 35 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Edward Woods was an actor from the 1930s. He was originally cast as the lead in Public Enemy in 1931, and James Cagney was to play his friend, but after a couple of days of filming, director William Wellman had the two actors switch roles, and Cagney became a super star, and Woods only made a total of 13 movies before retiring in 1938! He passed away in 1989 at the age of 86. Important Added Info: Note that this wonderful candid still shows Edward Woods in 1931, right before he started filming Public Enemy. The snipe on the back says that he "has the juvenile lead in The Public Enemy", and in fact, he did at that time, but after filming started, he lost the lead to the person who played his brother, James Cagney, when they were ordered to switch roles, and of course, that was Cagney's great break that made him a superstar! Note that this still measures 10 3/4" x 13 3/4" [27 x 35 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock and it has an embossed photographer's stamp in one of the bottom corners. Note that we are currently auctioning over 100 ultra rare 11x14 stills (some measure slightly smaller) that are mostly from the 1930s, all in separate auctions! The highlight of these is the 58 of them that were consigned to us by a collector who acquired them many years ago, and they feature wonderful images of many of the greatest 1930s Hollywood stars, including James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Gary Cooper, Edward G. Robinson, and many others! These are many times more rare than 8x10 stills, and are very rarely offered for sale or at auction, and many of these may be "one of a kind"! This is a very rare opportunity to acquire one or many of these extreme rarities! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
