An Original Vintage Theatrical Color 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More)

At the Circus, the 1939 Edward Buzzell musical circus screwball comedy ("Keep the world laughing!") starring The Marx Brothers (Groucho Marx, Chico Marx, and Harpo Marx), Kenny Baker, Florence Rice, Eve Arden, Margaret Dumont, Nat Pendleton, Fritz Feld, and Charles Gemora (as Gibraltar the gorilla). Note that this was the movie where the Marx Brothers sing the song "Lydia the Tattooed Lady"! Also note that MGM initially was going to call this movie "A Day at the Circus" (to capitalize on the success of "A Day at the Races"), but that title was dropped (although it is on a few stills). There was a working title of "Marx Bros At the Circus" that is also on some stills, but not the 1939 posters or lobby cards. To make things confusing, when MGM re-released the movie in 1962, the advertising made it look like the title of the movie was "Marx Bros At the Circus".

Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm].

This still (and the many others in this auction that have this sentence on it) come from a very advanced collector who has been collecting for over 50 years and has a very high quality collection some of which he is consigning with us.

Condition: good to very good. There is tiny paper loss in the blank corners. There are some stains in the bottom of the right blank border. There is tape on the back of the left and right (see our images).
