Auction History Result 9m628 UNDERSEA KINGDOM 8x10 transparency 1990s great art of Crash Corrigan on the one-sheet! Date Sold 9/10/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Photographic Transparency (measures 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) (Learn More) Undersea Kingdom, the 1936 B. Reeves Eason & Joseph Kane underwater science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy serial ("A Republic Serial in 12 Amazing Episodes"; "Original Story by Tracy Knight - John Rathmell"; about a college graduate, a lady reporter, and a geology professor who search for the source of earthquakes at the bottom of the ocean, and discover the lost civilization of Atlantis, where they intervene between two groups who are fighting to decide who will get to take over the entire Earth) starring Ray 'Crash' Corrigan, Lois Wilde, Monte Blue (as Unga Khan!), William Farnum, Lon Chaney Jr., Lane Chandler, Jack Mulhall, Malcolm McGregor, Lee Van Atta (as the young boy wearing the sailor cap), C. Montague Shaw, and John Merton. Note that this early science fiction thriller included really early robots (among the first in movies!). Note that for this serial, Republic Pictures prepared great full-color artwork one-sheets that were completely different from each other for each of the chapters (at least for the four different ones we have seen!). One wishes that all of the studios had done this for all of the serials. What wonderful posters there would have been! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the 8x10 transparency in this auction (and 63 other 8x10 transparencies we are currently auctioning in separate auctions) is NOT one that was created by a studio and sent to to newspapers, magazines, TV stations, or reviewers, so that they could use them to create the highest quality ads. These 64 transparencies are of mostly classic movie posters, and they were surely created in the 1990s or later, surely by either an auction house that was auctioning these items, or by a collector who owned these items, and wanted the highest quality image made from that poster. They are NOT from when the movie was first made, but from MUCH later. Please bear this in mind before bidding on this transparency (and also bear in mind that there ARE over 300 transparency lots in this auction that ARE from when the movies were made, and were made by the studios). Each transparency is clearly marked as to which kind they are (and they are in separate sections in the auction, to make it less likely anyone could confuse them). Even though this is not a vintage transparency, and was photographed after the movie came out from a poster, it can still be used to make very high quality reproductions, but bear in mind that we are solely auctioning the physical transparencies and NOT the right to reproduce them, so unless they are public domain, the new owner must acquire the rights elsewhere before reproducing them. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
