Auction History Result 1h040 BOOM TOWN deluxe candid 8x10 '40 incredible candid cast portrait by Clarence Sinclair Bull! Date Sold 7/10/2008 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 8" x 10" (8x10) Movie Still (Learn More) Boom Town, the 1940 Jack Conway Texas oil drilling romantic love triangle adventure melodrama ("Devil-May-Care Men Fought For Girls And Gold"; "The big all-star dramatic sensation!"; "Based on the story by James Edward Grant") starring Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Claudette Colbert, Hedy Lamarr, Frank Morgan, Lionel Atwill, Chill Wills, Minna Gombell, Marion Martin, and Carlotta Monti (who is in the film but not credited on IMDb). Note that in the very late 1930s and early 1940s, MGM had so many major stars under contract that they could put four of their biggest in a single movie, as they did with this great one! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that there is a paper snipe glued on the back of the still that describes the scene on the front (it does not affect the front of the still). It describes how it has been "many a day since Hollywood boasted such a cast of stars" in one movie, and that certainly is true, even today! There is a stamp on the back of the still that reads, "PLEASE CREDIT M-G-M PHOTO BY CLARENCE BULL". Note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Condition: very good. There is some paper residue and slight surface paper loss on the back of the top and bottom borders of the still (from when it was once glued to a mat), but it has no effect on the front. There is a brown stain across much of the bottom border that looks to be a stain from a piece of tape, and likely can be removed (and if it can't, it is not very distracting at all, and has only a slight effect on the image). Other than the above, this great deluxe still is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
