Auction History Result 5m0518 LOT OF 8 EMIL JANNINGS 8X10 STILLS 1920s great portraits & movie scenes! Date Sold 11/26/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 8 Emil Jannings 8x10 stills. Note that these stills come to us from a major collector of Paramount silent stills! We have previously auctioned a number of his stills individually, and now we are doing the remainder of them in bulk lots, by star (each in a separate bulk lot). They are all guaranteed original release silent stills, and they are surely incredibly rare! We have photographed the fronts and backs of each, both so you can see that, and also because on the stills where the title is not printed on the front, it is almost always handwritten on the back in pencil. This is an incredibly rare opportunity to obtain these great silent stills, and almost all of the remaining stills from this collection are in this set of bulk lot auctions, so this is likely your last chance to acquire these. Of course, Emil Jannings (born Theodor Friedrich Emil Janenz) was a Swiss actor from the 1910s to the 1940s (he was quite popular during the silent era, especially in German movies with Murnau and U.S. movies with Von Sternberg, but the coming of sound hurt his American career due to his thick accent). Some of his movies include: Faust, The Last Command (winner of the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), The Last Laugh, Tartuffe, Way Of All Flesh (winner of the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), and of course, The Blue Angel. Jannings was an actor who participated in the Nazi propaganda films during World War II (WWII), tarnishing what had been an illustrious career. He passed away in 1950 at the age of 65. Note that the items in this lot are mostly from the 1920s. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades Titles included:
