Some Photos

Here's a few of the things I picked up at the movie collectibles show:

Pic from Hitchcock's Notorious (a reprint) - Cary Grant & Ingrid Bergman on the plane down to Rio. For the Hitchcock collection of mine...

Here's an interesting pic (it was also cheap). I've seen these MGM "mega star" photos in books before. I believe this is one half of a larger MGM star barn photo. Here's a larger version of the photo where you can recognize folks. Lets see: Lassie, Lionel Barrymore, Fred Astaire, June Allyson, Van Johnson, I think there's Clark Gable. Yeah, some of the folks look real happy to be there.

Last, but not least, my one dollar Robert Montgomery photo for the film Troble for Two (1936). Must have been a freebie from the studio or something, it's simply printed on paper. I've never seen the film, so I went over to the trusty IMDB:

The Crown Prince is to marry the Princess Brenda of Irania, but the Princess declines the arranged marriage.
"Irania?" Oh boy...

Just saw this picture in person at a flea market. The seller claimed it was from the MGM offices and was wanting $999 for it. It was severely sun faded and all sepia toned.

About previous comment... It's the MGM actor stable picture I was referring to... Sorry!
