An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 10 1/4" x 13 1/2" [26 x 34 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Mary Brian (born Louise Byrdie Dantzler) was an actress from the 1920s to the 1950s. She was born in 1906 in Texas, and in 1923, her stage mother took her to Hollywood, determined to make her a star. After much effort, she was signed to appear in Peter Pan as Wendy, and that got her a five year movie contract. She was a "girl next door" type, and was nicknamed "The Sweetest Girl in Pictures". She had no problem making the transition to sound, but in the early 1930s, when flapper and vamp types became more popular, roles became fewer, and she took secondary parts. In 1936, she made a movie in England, and then went to Broadway, and in the 1950s, she had success on television. Some of her movies include: Brown of Harvard, Beau Geste, Man on the Flying Trapeze, and The Virginian. She passed away in 2002 at the age of 96. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 10 1/4" x 13 1/2" [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 this is one of a remarkable collection of 201 "oversized" stills we are auctioning this week. All of the stills measure greater than 8" x 10", and most measure 11" x 14". Many are deluxe (printed on a heavy weight paper stock), and many are stamped or embossed with the names of famous photographers of the time. This is surely the finest collection of such stills we have ever offered! In each case, we always identify the exact measurements of the still, whether or not it is deluxe, and if a photographer is credited (and we have high quality scans of both the front and back of every still, so you can see exactly what is on the back of each, and so you can clearly determine the exact condition of each). If you have the slightest interest in these, be sure to look over all of the 201"oversized" stills we are currently offering. We promise you won't be disappointed! Condition: very good to fine.
