An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) The Common Law, the 1931 Paul L. Stein Paris pre-Code France romantic love triangle artist painting melodrama ("The secret woman in a great man's life"; based on the novel by Robert W. Chambers; about a beautiful American woman living in sin with a rich man in Paris; she leaves him, becomes a nude model for a struggling young American artist, and one thing leads to another, and they fall in love, but when the artist learns that she had an affair before she was with him, he breaks things off with her, and that is only the beginning of a very complicated plot) starring Constance Bennett, Joel McCrea, Lew Cody, Robert Williams, Hedda Hopper, Marion Shilling, and Paul Ellis NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that any movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned anything other than a window card, two lobby cards, four stills, and a glass slide from this movie until we received this second glass slide! Note that this is from an incredible collection of 76 glass slides that were recently discovered! Almost all of them are from 1931 to 1933 (with a very few from before and after). We are auctioning them in 76 separate auctions, and then there will be no more from this amazing find (except for a few duplicated ones, which we will auction at a later time). Not only are many wonderful titles included, but many of the slides are in remarkable condition, and quite a few of them do not have any showtimes or days of the week handwritten in the bottom area, and many likely look like they did when they were first sent to the theater! There have been several "finds" of glass slides over the many years we have been auctioning, but this is surely one of the greatest ever and it is a wonderful opportunity to purchase some or many of these extreme rarities! Also 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). Condition: good. There are a couple of stains in the slide and a scratch on the back that shows through to the front in McCrea's sleeve and cheek (see our image). Please bear this in mind before bidding on this slide. Learn More about condition grades
