An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 10" x 13" [25 x 33 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Lena Horne was a beautiful actress and singer, and one of the first successful black African American actresses to achieve success in mainstream Hollywood movies in the 1930s and 1940s. She also had immense success as a musician prior, during, and after her movie career. Some of her movies include: Cabin in the Sky, Stormy Weather, and Till the Clouds Roll By! She passed away in 2010 at the age of 92. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 10" x 13" [25 x 33 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Note that this is one of 100 deluxe oversized stills (measuring 11" x 14" or similar) which were consigned to us, and they all originated from the legendary James Card Collection! James Card was a film preservationist who, starting in 1948, worked at the newly created George Eastman House in Rochester, New York, and he helped build their massive motion picture collection, preserving movies that had been forgotten at that time. In 1955, he discovered that Louise Brooks was living as a recluse in New York City, and he persuaded her to move to Rochester, where she wrote many letters and some books about her legendary career. Not only do these 100 oversized stills (which we are auctioning individually) have wonderful "provenance", but there is also no fear that they are not from their first release (and many of the stills have photographer stamps on the back or embossed, and some have other information on the back, and several have a stamp that identifies them as being from the "James Card Collection"!
