‎Paris: Cinedis 1959. Collection of 269 vintage black-and-white photographs for the 1959 French film. <br /> <br /> The collection consists of two unique and complimentary pieces one being a film still keybook with 68 contact prints of small format negatives most with 12 images per print amounting to over 800 images captured.
