Date Sold 3/31/2011Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Greta Garbo was a legendary romantic Swedish actress from the 1924 to 1941 (she retired at the age of 35, still extremely popular, and lived in seclusion for many decades afterwards, living by her trademark expression, "I want to be alone"). Almost all other major leading ladies of the mid 1920s had their careers diminished or ruined by the coming of sound, but not Garbo, all the more remarkable because she was not native English-speaking and she had a strong accent. She first rose to prominence in a movie in her native Sweden, and then attracted the interest of Hollywood, but she would only sign a contract if they would sign her director as well, and MGM agreed! Some of her movies include: Ninotchka (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Queen Christina, Grand Hotel, Anna Christie (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Romance (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), and Camille (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film). Garbo passed away in 1990 at the age of 84. Important Added Info: Note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Note that this still has a FACSIMILE autograph that is within the printing of the still (the still has NOT been personally autographed). Note that this is one of a remarkable collection of 201 "oversized" stills we are auctioning this week. All of the stills measure greater than 8" x 10", and most measure 11" x 14". Many are deluxe (printed on a heavy weight paper stock), and many are stamped or embossed with the names of famous photographers of the time. This is surely the finest collection of such stills we have ever offered! In each case, we always identify the exact measurements of the still, whether or not it is deluxe, and if a photographer is credited (and we have high quality scans of both the front and back of every still, so you can see exactly what is on the back of each, and so you can clearly determine the exact condition of each). If you have the slightest interest in these, be sure to look over all of the 201"oversized" stills we are currently offering. We promise you won't be disappointed! Condition: good to very good. There is a horizontal smudge across the lower part of Garbo's nose. Learn More about condition grades
