Accidents Will Happen, the 1938 William Clemens romantic love triangle insurance fraud crime thriller ("The fake accident racket exposed!"; about an insurance investigator who has a very ambitious wife, and she borrows money from a loan company, and when she can't pay it back, she participates in insurance fraud, knowing her husband will be the investigator, and will trust her, which he does; but he is caught and fired, and when he learns it was his wife's fault, he leaves her; he takes up with a cigarette girl, and together they pull off insurance frauds; then they get involved with a big insurance fraud that is run by the head of a bogus company; but when he discovers his ex-wife is in on the fraud, he turns state's evidence against the whole gang, and they are all sent to jail, including his ex-wife, and he gets his old job back!) starring Ronald Reagan, Gloria Blondell (younger sister of actress Joan Blondell), Dick Purcell, Hugh O'Connell, and Sheila Bromley. Note that this was an unusual role for Ronald Reagan, who usually played very clean cut characters! Also note that Gloria Blondell apparently got her start in movies thanks to her sister Joan, with a supporting role in the movie she made before this. But apparently she did not catch on at all, because after this starring role, she was reduced to minor supporting roles, and some TV.

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).
