Important Added Info: Note that the stills are glued to a linen-like backing (we think it is highly likely that these are key book stills, and that someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the top or left of the still, no doubt so it could be put in a frame). Condition: good to very good. Both have some creases and scuffs on front. They are otherwise in generally nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
