Set of 2 Original Vintage Photographic Transparencies (measure 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) (Learn More) Donald O'Connor was an actor from the 1930s to the 2000s. He started as a juvenile actor in the late 1930s, and then was paired with Gloria Jean by Universal in an attempt to make musicals similar to MGM's featuring Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney. He continued as a popular musical actor throughout the 1940s, and in 1952, he had probably his greatest role in Singin' in the Rain, especially his "Make 'em Laugh" number! In the 1940s and 1950s, he was the star of the popular "Francis the Talking Mule" series of movies. Some of his other movies include: Out to Sea, That Funny Feeling, and Yes Sir, That's My Baby. He passed away in 2003 at the age of 78. Important Added Info: Note that this is a set of 2 transparencies and that we have scanned both of them. Note that studios would create photographic transparencies to promote their latest movies (or stars), and they would sometimes send these to publicists, theater owners, newspapers, and others, to aid them in promoting the movie. We cannot say for certain what the origin of these transparencies are, but we feel certain they were created by the studio at the time the movie it was promoting was made! Condition: fair. Both transparencies have considerable deterioration around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
