Leonard silent Metro Pictures musical romantic love triangle European royalty political melodrama ("Story by Edmund Goulding"; a pretty wild story of a Queen of a mythical European country called "Jazzmania", which had originally been call "Jassmania", but its name was changed to the new spelling because everyone there loves to dance and party!; she is engaged to marry a Prince, but she refuses to marry him, and he starts a revolution, and she goes to the U.S. where she meets a handsome newspaper reporter, and she becomes the toast of New York thanks to her wonderful native dances!; she returns with the reporter to Jazzmania and turns the country into a democracy, so that she can abdicate the crown and marry the reporter!) starring Mae Murray, Rod La Rocque, Robert Frazer, Edmund Burns, and Jean Hersholt. Note that this was a "silent musical", which sounds like a contradiction, but actually is not. Given that all silent movie had full musical scores, it was possible to create a silent musical (but of course, the coming of sound made musicals the most popular genre in the early 1930s) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Note that this still likely has a stamp on the back in the form of a diamond that has the letters "TRR". One certainly might wonder who placed this stamp there and why. The answer is that 160 of the stills 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 almost his stills with this stamp, and "TRR" is his initials! Each of those 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 to fine. The still is in very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
