Auction History Result 1j083 DANGEROUS CURVES glass slide '29 close up of sexy cute Clara Bow, directed by Lothar Mendes! Date Sold 2/21/2010 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) Dangerous Curves, the 1929 Lothar Mendes circus romantic love triangle melodrama ("The Inimitable Clara Bow Will Thrill You Again!"; about a pretty young girl working at the circus as a bareback rider, sometimes in full clown makeup; she is in love with the handsome trapeze artist, but he has fallen for a beautiful vamp played by an extremely young Kay Francis!) starring Clara Bow ("SEE and HEAR her talk!"), Richard Arlen, Kay Francis, David Newell, and Anders Randolf. Note that Clara Bow was the most famous "flapper girl" of the mid to late 1920s (she became known as "The It Girl" after the character she played based on the popular novel by Elinor Glyn). She had a major role in Wings, and was Paramount's biggest star at that time. But she had a notorious private life and seemingly "settled down" when she married cowboy star Rex Bell in 1931 (she had two children and she retired from movies), but sadly in 1949 she went into a mental institution after a failed suicide attempt (she had had psychiatric issues for quite some time) and she was released but never returned to her family, and lived alone until her death in 1965.

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). 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). Condition: fine. The glass slide itself is in nice condition and the cardboard holder has some minor smudges (as can be seen in our super-sized images). Learn More about condition grades
