An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Last Mile, the 1932 Samuel Bischoff prison escape murder crime thriller ("From the play that rocked the nation by John Wexley"; much like the much later TV series "The Fugitive", an innocent man is found guilty of the murder of his business partner, and he is sentenced to death row, and his friends try to prove him innocent, but just before he is to be executed, a brutal inmate leads a prison riot, and almost everyone is killed, but the prison officials tell the few remaining convicts that evidence has been found to prove the man innocent, and the inmate leader of the riot walks into the police bullets, effectively committing suicide!) starring Howard Phillips, Preston Foster, Noel Madison, George E. Stone, Alan Roscoe, and Paul Fix. Note that this movie starred Preston Foster as the brutal inmate "Killer" Mears. When the movie was remade in 1959, Mickey Rooney took that same role, and it is hard to see why he wanted to fill Preston Foster's shoes! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is unlike most stills we have ever seen. We have seen some key book stills like it that also have an image of nine great still images joined together, but those also had full credits and a complete plot summary printed on the back! Apparently this was something that was done beginning in 1924, and we had thought that it was a very brief experiment, but now we have seen another one from 1936, and this similar one from 1932, so we know it continued for at least ten years, but they are really incredibly rare and really cool! Also note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
