An Original Vintage 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Still (Learn More) a local theater advertising A Connecticut Yankee by Mark Twain, the 1931 David Butler fantasy time travel comedy spoof (based on the novel by Mark Twain; about a small town man who meets an inventor who thinks he can contact King Arthur by radio; after the typical "bump on the head", Rogers wakes up in the real life Camelot, and has many adventures before returning to the present day; as in "The Wizard of Oz", the Camelot characters and the present day characters are played by the same actors) starring Will Rogers, Maureen O'Sullivan, Myrna Loy, Frank Albertson, and William Farnum (as King Arthur/Inventor) AND Nick Lucas ("The crooning troubadour"; "in person" "Starts Thurs."). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that this Boston theater showed both movies and had live stage shows, and this amazing lobby display has a giant sign for A Connecticut Yankee and also a second giant sign for the live performance of Nick Lucas (see our image). Also note that in recent auctions we have auctioned small photos of theater fronts from the 1930s and 1940s. Now we have been consigned a really cool collection of mostly 1930s 8x10 stills that show theater fronts and lobby displays (many of them have a stamp from a Boston company on the back, so it seems likely that most or all of them are from theaters in the Boston area)! All of those stills are in this set of auctions (in separate auctions). So this is a rare opportunity to purchase vintage 8x10 stills showing theater fronts from the 1930s (and since we have only auctioned a tiny number of these over all our years of auctioning, there is a good chance that it will be a long time before we have more of them). Also note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
