Date Sold 3/14/2023Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 7 3/4" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) Crime and Punishment, the classic 1935 Josef von Sternberg psychological detective crime murder mystery melodrama ("Dostoievsky's [sic] immortal novel of human passions"; "The most powerful drama of modern times!"; "A superb drama of human emotions takes its place among the greatest!"; based on the classic novel by Fyodor Dostoevsky; about a brilliant but poor man who commits a murder, and he seems to get away with it, but there is a police inspector who suspects) starring Edward Arnold (as Inspector Porfiry), Peter Lorre (as Raskolnikov), Marian Marsh (as Sonya), Tala Birell, Robert Allen, Douglass Dumbrille, and Stella Campbell (billed as "Mrs. Patrick Campbell", as the creepy pawnbroker). Note that the name Stella Campbell might not be familiar to you, but in 1914, George Bernard Shaw wrote the play "Pygmalion" specifically with her in mind, and she played the lead in the first stage production, even though she was 49 at the time. She was a Hollywood legend for her wildly inappropriate remarks, often directed at famous and important people in public! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, printed on a deluxe heavyweight paper stock. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the top of the still. Condition: good to very good. The top 1" was neatly trimmed off (see above), and the left and right blank borders were partially trimmed. There are some small faint smudges in the top center black background, but they are mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light. Otherwise, the still is in nice condition!
