This series of movie stills is mostly from the 40s - 60s and represents some of the leading films
of that era.  Each is vintage, from that period, and most are still marked with
the original crop-marks for publication and/or the issue information from the studio. 
They are all 8 x 10s and the images shown are scans of the photographs available. 
They are in excellent repair, but come from the working files of the magazines they were published
 in, hence show some marks and wear. All are silver prints. Please contact the gallery for more information.  The collection includes others. Enjoy!
