Auction History Result 4h425 MARIHUANA 8x10 still '35 Dwain Esper, close up of druggie girl holding needle! Date Sold 8/25/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" Movie Still (Learn More) Marihuana, the 1935 Dwain Esper marijuana marihuana pot weed drug crime thriller ("Daring Drug Expose!"; "Horror Shame Despair!"; "Today's headlines.... Tomorrow's despair....!"; "What happens at marihuana parties?"; "Lust crime sorrow despair shame hate"; "Not recommended for children"; "Smoke that gets in youth's eyes!"; "Misery"; "Weird orgies, wild parties, unleashed passions!"; "America's Crime Creator!"; "A puff of smoke changed their lives!"; "The weed with roots in Hell!", "The sweet pill...that makes life bitter!"; "The most daring picture ever made!") starring Harley Wood, Gloria Browne, Pat Carlyle, Juanita Crosland, Dorothy Dehn, Paul Ellis, Richard Erskine, Hugh McArthur and Hal Taggart. At the time this movie was meant to be a "daring drug expose", but it is now laughable and a camp classic, and posters from the first release of the movie in 1935 (and the roadshow releases that followed it in the late 1930s and early 1940s) are both rare and extremely desired by collectors. Important Added Info: Note that before we saw this cool still, we thought that "Roadshow Attractions" only distributed the re-release of this movie. But this still has "Roadshow Attractions" at the bottom, and it has a 1936 date stamp on the back, so we know that they were also the distributor of the first release! Note that any first release items from this movie are INCREDIBLY rare! Condition: fair to good. There is some paint and pencil lines in the right of the image. There is a long diagonal crease in the upper left corner repaired with tape on the back. We don't know how easy or difficult it would be to restore the above defects, so please bear that in mind before placing a bid on this great still. Learn More about condition grades
