Auction History Result 6t952 TINGLER 8.25x10 still '59 c/u of mad scientist Vincent Price holding down Patricia Cutts! Date Sold 3/23/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Tingler, the 1959 William Castle horror science fiction (sci-fi) thriller ("When the screen screams you'll scream too... if you value your life!"; "Do you have the guts to sit in this chair?"; "Percepto! Newest and most startling gimmick on the screen!"; "Can you take it while The Tingler breaks loose?"; "Guaranteed 'The Tingler' will break loose in the theatre while you are in the audience. As you enter the theatre you will receive instructions... How to guard yourself against attack by The Tingler!"; "Filmed in Percepto!"; "Written by Robb White") starring Vincent Price, Judith Evelyn, Darryl Hickman, Patricia Cutts, Pamela Lincoln, and Philip Coolidge. Note that this film had a really wonderful "gimmick" in it, where Judith Evelyn is in a bathroom, and although the film is entirely black & white, for this one sequence, they filmed it in color, and Evelyn turns on the sink tap, and blood comes out, and then she turns to the bathtub, which is filled with blood, and a bloody hand comes out of the water! They managed to make everything else appear black & white EXCEPT for the blood in the sink and the blood and hand in the bathtub, and this was done by painting everything else in the bathroom black and white, and even applying makeup to Evelyn, so she appeared to be in black & white!

Note that not only does our current auction of 999 stills represent the absolute finest selection we have ever had in terms of quality of image and film, but it also represents the finest CONDITION group of stills we have ever had! Half of the stills are graded as being in "very good to fine" condition (which is our highest grade for vintage stills), but we were very strict on this, because otherwise, perhaps two thirds or three quarters of the stills would have received this grade! We downgraded stills to "very good" for pretty minor defects, and many of these might have received our "very good to fine" grade in the past. And the half of the stills that ARE in very good to fine condition would likely be graded "mint" by any other auction! This is the finest group of stills I have ever seen, and I can only hope to equal it someday! Condition: very good to fine. The still is in very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
