An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 7 3/4" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) Thunderbolt, the 1929 Josef von Sternberg romantic love triangle crime film noir ("Super Paramount Talking Production"; Bancroft plays a really bad man who is on Death Row, but his only concern is the convict in the cell next to him, who was framed, and is in love with the same girl that Bancroft is, and Bancroft wants to find a way to kill him before he himself is executed) starring George Bancroft (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; "The dynamic star of the screen"), Fay Wray, Richard Arlen, Tully Marshall, and Eugenie Besserer NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the top of the still. Condition: very good. The top 1" was neatly trimmed off (see above). Otherwise, the still is in nice condition!
