Important Added Info: Note that this is a Universal Studios negative that was in the camera when their photographer (Jack Freulich) shot the photo. We have put a scan of the negative that shows the "positive image" (in addition to a scan of the negative image). REMEMBER THAT WHAT YOU RECEIVE WILL BE A PHOTOGRAPHIC NEGATIVE, NOT A POSITIVE IMAGE LIKE YOU ARE SEEING. However, we will provide the winning bidder of this auction that positive image scan that is both high quality and not watermarked (on request to the winning bidder, and only the winning bidder). We scanned it, so that bidders could see just how high quality it is. It came in a plastic sleeve and will be sent to the winner of the auction in that. These often (but not always) have retouching on the emulsion side, and negative numbers written in India ink on the front. This camera original negative was purchased by our consignor in Profiles in History "Hollywood Auction 44", where it was lot #806, and he paid $3,250 for it (not counting the buyer's premium), but it is being auctioned here with no reserve! Finally, note that this negative is marked as "nitrate" at the top. We have seen original negatives from this era marked as "nitrate" or "safety", and we have also seen unmarked original negatives. The other three negatives that we are currently auctioning are unmarked. Condition: very good. See both of our images to get a sense of the exact condition of this camera original negative.
