An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 10 3/4" x 14" [27 x 36 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Pola Negri was a Polish actress from the 1910s to the 1960s. She had been a major star in the 1920s, but when her career began winding down in the late 1930s, she went to Europe and made five movies (including the memorable "Mazurka", which was a remake of "Millie", which was later remade as "Confession") before basically retiring. Some of her other movies include: Barbed Wire, The Love Goddesses, Shadows of Paris, Bella Donna, and Hi Diddle Diddle. She passed away in 1987 at the age of 90. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 10 3/4" x 14" [27 x 36 cm]. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Note that this is one of 100 deluxe oversized stills (measuring 11" x 14" or similar) which were consigned to us, and they all originated from the legendary James Card Collection! James Card was a film preservationist who, starting in 1948, worked at the newly created George Eastman House in Rochester, New York, and he helped build their massive motion picture collection, preserving movies that had been forgotten at that time. In 1955, he discovered that Louise Brooks was living as a recluse in New York City, and he persuaded her to move to Rochester, where she wrote many letters and some books about her legendary career. Not only do these 100 oversized stills (which we are auctioning individually) have wonderful "provenance", but there is also no fear that they are not from their first release (and many of the stills have photographer stamps on the back or embossed, and some have other information on the back, and several have a stamp that identifies them as being from the "James Card Collection"!
