Date Sold 1/14/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Wizard of Oz, the classic 1939 Victor Fleming family magical fantasy adventure musical ("MGM's miracle musical show of shows!"; "It's Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's Technicolor triumph!"; "Magnificent in its brilliant Technicolor splendor!"; "At Last It's Here Biggest Sensation Since "Snow White"!"; "The mighty miracle show that is the talk of America!"; "Amazing sights to see! The Tornado, Munchkinland, Horse of a Different Color, Startling Balloon Ascent, The Flying Monkeys, The Tree That Throws Apples"; "Gaiety! Glory! Glamour!"; based on the classic book of the same name by L. Frank Baum; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Judy Garland (as Dorothy), Frank Morgan (in the title role as The Wizard of Oz!), Ray Bolger (as The Scarecrow), Bert Lahr (as The Cowardly Lion), Jack Haley (as The Tin Man), Billie Burke (as Glinda, the Good Witch), Margaret Hamilton (as the Wicked Witch), Charley Grapewin, "The Munchkins", and Toto too! Note that MGM was worried about how well this movie would do at the box office, and they did something we don't remember seeing on any other major movie advertising! One of the taglines says "Biggest sensation since Snow White", which means MGM was advertising a Walt Disney movie, but that shows just how worried they were! Of course, they needn't have worried, because this was a timeless classic that has only improved with age. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still has "Copyright 1939 Loew's Inc." in the bottom left, with full MGM information at the bottom. Many other 1939 first release stills from this classic movie have solely "Made in U.S.A." printed in the lower right, and some have no printing at the bottom (but we think those are also from 1939, the ones that are clearly vintage). There are 1970 re-release photos that also have no printing at the bottom, but those are on a much "newer" paper stock. We are also separately auctioning two of the stills that have no printing at the bottom, but we believe those are surely from 1939 (they were found in an archive of 1930s and 1940s stills). Also note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Condition: good to very good. Someone trimmed a tiny bit of the lower right blank border. There are a few creases in the top left background area. There are stains on the back of the right of the bottom border and on the back of the bottom right corner, but they do not affect the front (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
