I found this in a pile of stills at a flea market...anyone have any idea of the value on something like this? I don't really collect this kind of thing.

The back has a blue stamp from "Larry Edmunds Book Shop" in Hollywood, and there is a typed strip affixed to the back with Columbia studio info on it.

Looks like it's worth $2.00 Andy. Can't you see the price on the backside upper corner? ;D
Well, I got screwed...I paid $10! ;D
Want to sell it?
Andy,
Don't listen to Gen. Terry! Oh jeez...is that a court marshal-able offense? I'm sure it's somewhere in the rule book, you're not supposed to tell people to ignore the General! Oh well, I live dangerously. That sort of still usually brings $15-20. You got a good buy! And now...uh....good bye!
Thanks for the info. If it was worth a lot I would have sold it, but it's almost too cool to sell for pocket change. It really is a neat picture. I got a bunch more from the same guy; Fright Night, Gremlins, Frank Langella Dracula, Vincent Price in The House of Wax (my fave), Carrie, and a really nice one of Ingrid Pitt in the bath from Hammer's The Vampire Lovers. :o
If you're addicted to searching eBay, stills like this one can go for relatively big bucks or for a couple bucks. If you really like it, keep it, unless the cupboard is bare! Once it's gone you'll probably never get another. Listen to the voice of experience and enjoy your photo.

Ah! Finally .. my first opportunity to ban a member here! This will be fun! Never cared for that old sob Robert Taylor anyways. ;D
Just in case I needed to point this out .. I was joking around with Andy on the price. Certainly worth more than $2.00. How about $3.00? ;)
I think if you just type in the titles as I've written them, in the TITLE section of the search, you'll get these items. Go, children of the night! Buy what I dug up for you! But try your own searches. I like doing the search via the KEYWORD. Good stuff turns up.
