An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 10 1/4" x 13 1/4" [26 x 34 cm] Movie Still (Learn More)

Desire, the 1936 Frank Borzage romantic jewel thief smuggling melodrama ("Together again for the first time since 'Morocco'"; "From a comedy by Hans Szekely and R.A. Stemmle"; about a beautiful jewel thief in Paris who steals a pearl necklace, and who hides them in the luggage of an American engineer going to Spain, and then she must retrieve them from him, and in doing so, she falls in love with him) starring Marlene Dietrich, Gary Cooper, John Halliday, William Frawley, Ernest Cossart, Akim Tamiroff, Alan Mowbray, and Zeffie Tilbury (who had the part of her life at the end of her career, as Grandma in "The Grapes of Wrath")
NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Important Added Info: Note that this wonderful candid still shows an incredible Paramount studio portrait of these great stars by Eugene Robert Richee. The snipe on the back mentions that they had been reunited after being teamed originally in Morocco.

Note that this still measures 10 1/4" x 13 1/4" [26 x 34 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock.

Note that we are currently auctioning over 100 ultra rare 11x14 stills (some measure slightly smaller) that are mostly from the 1930s, all in separate auctions! The highlight of these is the 58 of them that were consigned to us by a collector who acquired them many years ago, and they feature wonderful images of many of the greatest 1930s Hollywood stars, including James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Gary Cooper, Edward G. Robinson, and many others! These are many times more rare than 8x10 stills, and are very rarely offered for sale or at auction, and many of these may be "one of a kind"! This is a very rare opportunity to acquire one or many of these extreme rarities!

Condition: good to very good. There is a faint partial diagonal crease in the upper left border that extends through Dietrich's hair and into the left of Cooper's hair at his forehead. Fortunately, it is almost invisible when the still is looked at straight on, and this wonderful still will display fantastically on the new owner's wall!
