Auction History Result #364 DESERT HAWK glass slide '44 serial Date Sold 5/14/2002Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) The Desert Hawk, the 1944 B. Reeves Eason Arabian desert adventure serial ("A Columbia Chapter Play"; "Flashing cutlasses doom the enemies of the hawk!"; "The Hawk dare all in a battle to the finish on the desert!"; "Cheer the hero of 1000 desert adventures!"; "More serial excitement than you ever dreamed of!"; "The Hawk wins out in a daring, death-defying ruse!"; "Screen Play by Sherman Lowe, Leslie Swabacker, Jack Stanley and Leighton Brill") starring Gilbert Roland, Mona Maris, Egon Brecher, I. Stanford Jolley, Frank Lackteen, and Kermit Maynard. Note that James Ellison was supposed to star in this serial, and posters were printed with him as the star, but shortly before filming began, he was replaced by Gilbert Roland. While some posters with Ellison credited (mainly three-sheet and six-sheet posters) had already been sent to theaters, all remaining posters which had already been printed had a snipe added that covered the Ellison credit with Roland's, and existing pressbooks were destroyed. We have only seen a single three-sheet poster with Ellison billed, and two chapter 1 one-sheet which were sniped. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Glenn Cravath Important Added Info: Glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Note that this is the 1944 version of "Desert Hawk". We are also selling the 1950 version elsewhere on eBay this week. Condition: fine. The slide and holder are in about as good condition as can be expected (there is just slight aging to the holder). See below for a scan of the slide and a separate scan of the holder.
