An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) Massacre, the 1934 Alan Crosland Native American Indian racial prejudice melodrama ("Every blazing scene torn from the bleeding hearts of a million vanishing Americans!"; about a Native American Indian, Joe Thunderhorse, the son of a Sioux chief, who has gone to college and married a white socialite, but he returns to his reservation and sees how terribly his people are treated, and he leaves his white girlfriend for a Native girl from the reservation, and he goes to Washington to try to get better treatment for his people; this was very loosely based on the real life story of John Collier, who was the head of the Bureau of Indian Affairs in FDR's first term, and who made great efforts to improve the treatment of Native American Indians) starring Richard Barthelmess (as Joe Thunderhorse), Ann Dvorak, Dudley Digges, Claire Dodd, Sidney Toler, and Tully Marshall. Note that film historian William K. Everson often mentioned this movie for a scene where black African American Clarence Muse looks down on Native American Indians as being his inferiors!

Important Added Info: 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: very good to fine. The theater that used this slide wrote the days the movie was playing in the play dates section at the bottom of the glass. Otherwise, the glass slide itself is in nice condition and the cardboard holder has some minor smudges (as can be seen in our super-sized images). Learn More about condition grades
