Auction History Result 2d439 GWILI ANDRE 8x10.25 still '30s c/u of the beautiful Danish actress in a seductive pose! Date Sold 10/5/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Gwili Andre (born Gurli Andresen) was a Danish actress from the 1930s to the 1940s. She was a model in Europe, and she married in 1929 and moved to New York City with her first husband. She was spotted by David O. Selznick, and he tried to make her into another Garbo, but while she was very beautiful, she lacked acting talent (she likely had other talents, because she soon separated from her husband, a situation similar to that with Selznick and Jennifer Jones a decade later!). After a few lead roles that flopped, she had supporting roles into the middle 1940s, when she married and divorced again. She moved back to Denmark and then to New York, and then California, and in 1959, she tragically died in a house fire in her apartment. She was 51. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Note that this still has a stamp on the back in the form of a diamond that has "TRR" running down the center. One certainly might wonder who placed this stamp there and why. The answer is that the still (and many others we are auctioning in this set of auctions) come to us from a still collector who has collected for many decades, and long ago he began stamping the back of his stills with this stamp, and "TRR" is his initials! Each of the stills is stamped lightly, and the stamp does NOT affect the front of the still. He is a VERY advanced collector, and he has consigned many wonderful stills to us! Condition: very good. There is some emulsion loss in the left of the top blank border. There is a very slight unevenness to the color of the still, and it may be intentional, or it may be that it has partially changed color (see our image and decide for yourself). Otherwise, the still is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
