Date Sold 2/14/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) Ladies of the Big House, the 1931 Marion Gering romantic love triangle women-in-prison crime murder melodrama ("Life tore them apart on their wedding day!"; about a young woman who finds out her boyfriend is a gangster, and she dumps him and marries a good man, and the gangster kills someone and frames both the woman and her husband, and she is sent to prison and he is sentenced to death, and she tries to find evidence to free them before the execution) starring Sylvia Sidney ("of 'An American Tragedy' fame"), Gene Raymond, Wynne Gibson, Earle Foxe, Rockliffe Fellowes, and Louise Beavers. Note that in movies like this, the "women in prison" almost always are awful and sadistic, and the guards are as well, but in this one movie, this is not at all true, although there is a major plot twist (SPOILER ALERT!) when it turns out that the district attorney is in cahoots with the gangster who framed the couple! 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 French poster, a Swedish poster, an Austrian program, two German programs, and a herald from this movie until we received this 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: very good to fine. The slide is in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
