An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 8" x 9 1/2" [20 x 24 cm] Movie Still (Learn More)

A Day at the Races, the classic 1937 Sam Wood horse racing sports gambling screwball comedy ("The year's big laugh, music and girl show!") starring the Marx Brothers (Groucho Marx, Chico Marx, and Harpo Marx), Allan Jones, Maureen O'Sullivan, Margaret Dumont, Esther Muir, Douglass Dumbrille, Sig Ruman, Leonard Ceeley, and Dorothy Dandridge (in an uncredited early role, in a sequence where a large number of young black African American men and women sing with Harpo). Note that this movie includes the classic comedy sequence where Groucho tries to buy a horse racing tip from Chico's Tootsie-Frootsie ice cream cart!

Important Added Info: Note that there is an Advertising Advisory Council stamp on the back, and it has the numbers "1938" handwritten within the oval. In 1939, that council switched to using rectangular stamps, so we know for certain that this is a still from before 1939 (we suspect it is from 1937, and that someone wrote "1938" over it, when it was used that next year. Finally, note that this is a deluxe still from this movie, printed on double weight paper stock. Our consignor has collected Marx Brothers stills for decades, and this is the very first and only deluxe still from this movie he has ever seen (and we have never before auctioned a deluxe still from this movie). Note that this still measures 8" x 9 1/2" [20 x 24 cm], but it does not appear to be trimmed.

Condition: very good.
