Auction History Result 6p1361 RED HAIR herald 1928 gentlemen don't prefer blondes when Clara Bow is around, rare! Date Sold 6/4/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Herald (measures 4 1/2" x 6" [11 x 15 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) Red Hair, the 1928 Clarence G. Badger silent romantic comedy (based on the novel "by Elinor Glyn"; about a manicurist who wants to find a rich husband, and when her boyfriends find out she is just a gold digger, they tell her off at a fancy party, and she responds by throwing down the jewels and fancy gown she was given, and jumping in a swimming pool!) starring Clara Bow (as Bubbles McCoy, "a cute little cuticle cutter"), Lane Chandler, William Austin, Jacqueline Gadsden, and Lawrence Grant. Note that this is a "lost" film which means that only fragments of the film are thought to exist (including the only surviving footage of Clara Bow in Technicolor). Note that Clara Bow was the most famous "flapper girl" of the mid to late 1920s (she became known as "The It Girl" after the character she played based on the popular novel by Elinor Glyn). She had a major role in Wings, and was Paramount's biggest star at that time. But she had a notorious private life and seemingly "settled down" when she married cowboy star Rex Bell in 1931 (she had two children and she retired from movies), but sadly in 1949 she went into a mental institution after a failed suicide attempt (she had had psychiatric issues for quite some time) and she was released but never returned to her family, and lived alone until her death in 1965.

One of those examples has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still only one of three examples we have ever auctioned! Note that we were recently consigned an excellent collection of heralds! We auctioned the first 30 of these in our April Major Auction, and all but four of those sold for between $2,012 and $110! Now we continue with another 40 heralds from this collection (in 40 separate auctions), and we will continue auctioning 40 of them every four weeks until they are all auctioned. There is only one of each herald, and many of them are quite rare, so if you don't purchase one, it may be many years before you see it at auction again! Condition: very good.
