Auction History Result 2b1687 42nd STREET 7x9 still 1933 sexy showgirl Ruth Eddings in unfastened overall-like dress! Date Sold 5/10/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 7" x 9" [18 x 23 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) 42nd Street, the classic 1933 Lloyd Bacon New York City Broadway theater stage acting romantic love triangle all-star musical ("14 stars 200 girls"; based on the novel by Bradford Ropes; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; with dances staged by Busby Berkeley) starring Dick Powell, Edward J. Nugent, Ginger Rogers, Warner Baxter, Bebe Daniels, George Brent, Ruby Keeler, Una Merkel, Guy Kibbee, Margaret La Marr, Donna Mae Roberts, Adele Lacy, Jayne Shaddack, George E. Stone, Ned Sparks, Ruth Eddings, Edna Callahan, Lynn Browning, Toby Wing, Loretta Andrews, Barbara Rogers, and Allen Jenkins. Note that this movie, which may be the first sound movie to use the cliche of the star being injured and an untested newcomer gets her big break as a result, had some of the most risque advertising of any movie ever, with many images of girls wearing the skimpiest of costumes! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7" x 9" [18 x 23 cm]. Note that this great individual still (and a number of others, both singles and sets) come from a recently discovered collection of mostly 1930s stills (but with some from the 1920s, and some from the 1940s and 1950s) that came from the estate of a longtime journalist who wrote about these movies and visited the sets of many movies and were given these stills at that time. They are all rare original stills from the first release of the movies, and some have cool candid images. We auctioned a similar group of stills from this wonderful collection in our auctions that closed April 12, 2022, and now we are auctioning almost all of the remaining stills from this collection (in singles and sets, just as they were last time). After this set of auctions, there will be only a handful left from this collection, so this is pretty much your last opportunity to acquire these extremely rare stills, including some from movies you almost never see anything from! Condition: good to very good. The still was neatly trimmed around the edges but is otherwise in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
