Auction History Result #311 GORILLA 8x10 '39 Bela Lugosi Date Sold 2/19/2002Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical 8x10 Still (Learn More) The Gorilla, the 1939 Allan Dwan detective mystery horror screwball comedy ("Based on the play by Ralph Spence"; about a wealthy man who is being threatened by a criminal known as "The Gorilla", and he hires three detectives to investigate, and things get really complicated when a real escaped gorilla shows up on the premises) starring The Ritz Brothers (Jimmy Ritz, Harry Ritz, and Al Ritz), Anita Louise, Patsy Kelly, Lionel Atwill, Bela Lugosi, Joseph Calleia, Edward Norris, Wally Vernon, and Art Miles (in the title role as the gorilla; he played a few gorillas over the years, which was only slightly better than the rest of his career, which was almost all uncredited roles). Note that poor Bela Lugosi's star had fallen quite a bit since his rise to fame in 1931 in Dracula. The same year this movie was made, he had a great role as Ygor in "Son of Frankenstein", but in this movie (made for 20th Century-Fox), he was seventh billed!

This week on eBay, eMoviePoster is selling an amazing collection of horror/sci-fi/fantasy vintage 8x10 stills. Most of the stills from the 1950s on were obtained by the collector directly from a movie theater. Most of the earlier stills were purchased from the leading movie memorabilia stores in the 1960s and 1970s. All of the stills purchased from stores were sold as originals, and many of them have original notations on the back that would certainly seem to confirm that they are indeed original. We at eMoviePoster carefully examined every still, and believe every one we are selling is a genuine original vintage still! However, since we know there is no way you can know this for sure from looking at a digital image, be aware that we unconditionally guarantee every still we sell to vintage and from the year we say it is. If you purchase any stills, and after receiving them, have doubts as to their originality, simply return it within one week for a no questions asked refund! We have sold many thousands of stills on eBay in the past two years, and only a handful of them were ever returned because the buyer had any doubt. We stand behind every item we sell!
