Gates"; about trapeze artists in a circus, two men and a woman, and one man is in love with the woman, but she loves the other, and the rejected man intentionally drops his rival during the act, and he is killed; he is replaced by a handsome young man, and the female acrobat falls in love with the replacement, and her partner starts to plan to kill the young man in the same way he did it before!) starring Charles 'Buddy' Rogers, Jean Arthur, Paul Lukas, Helen Ware, and Oscar Apfel. Note that Buddy Rogers quickly rose to success in the late 1920s, and in this movie he was billed as "America's Boy Friend". Note that this movie bears many similarities to the 1956 movie Trapeze, except in the newer movie no one is killed! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still. Condition: very good. The left 1" was neatly trimmed off (see above). Otherwise, the still is in nice condition!
