An Original Vintage Theatrical Style A Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) The Buccaneer, the 1938 Cecil B. DeMille seafaring Navy Naval sailor military biographical pirate romantic adventure melodrama ("Based on an adaptation by Jeanie Macpherson of 'Lafitte the Pirate' by Lyle Saxon"; a highly fictionalized biography of the famous 18th century pirate Jean Lafitte, who operated for many years off of New Orleans, but because he did not attack any American ships, he was somewhat tolerated by the American government) starring Fredric March (as Jean Lafitte), Franciska Gaal, Akim Tamiroff, Margot Grahame, Walter Brennan, Ian Keith, Anthony Quinn, Douglass Dumbrille, Beulah Bondi, Robert Barrat, and Evelyn Keyes (making her debut in a tiny role). Note that all of the U.S. posters for this movie that have art have really distinctive art. All of it is by an artist named "Dan Sayre Groesbeck". But several of the posters are unsigned, and others are signed with only parts of his name, and in different ways (perhaps the artist was just being "playful"). Groesbeck worked for DeMille creating his concept art and some of his poster art from the early 1920s until he passed away in 1950! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that 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). This slide is the kind that has two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of the image, but we have not taken a photo of the slide, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: very good.
