1928réf. WALTER-FILM007745Paramount. No binding. Very Good. Los Angeles: Paramount Pictures 1928. Set of 9 vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm black-and-white photos one trimmed for publication one the portrait of Evelyn Brent with chipping and a long tape repair on verso one with mimeographed text on verso and five linen-backed keybook photos. Overall very good or better. The Drag Net is a lost gangster film from Josef von Sternberg. These photos provide a tantalising glimpse into what once existed. Film historian John Baxter provides a synopsis: "Captain Timothy 'Two Gun' Nolan George Bancroft is appointed head of the New York detective force and as his first act rounds up every criminal in town – the 'drag net' of the title. Gang boss 'Dapper' Frank Trent William Powell stands bail for all of them including 'The Magpie' Evelyn Brent as independent minor gang-leader with complex alliances. Nolan is particularly impressed by the girl who affects caps of black-and-white feathers and is attended by her own bodyguard of gunmen. She and the detective have a number of sexually charged encounters before her release. Setting out to get Trent Nolan moves in on his hideout assisted by his friend 'Shakespeare' Leslie Fenton. Trent armed with a machine gun kills Shakespeare but makes Nolan believe it is his shot that has done so. Nolan for motives as obscure as those which motivated the futile round-up of the gangs resigns his commission and becomes a drunk. Found unconscious by Trent he is offered as the pièce de résistance at a gangland banquet which 'The Magpie' attends. Pitying the humiliated man she discovers that he did not kill his friend reveals the fact to him and is reformed and wounded in the downfall of Trent killed by Nolan in his steel-shuttered apartment."

réf. WALTER-FILM007819Paramount. No binding. Near Fine. Los Angeles: Paramount 1929. Vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm black-and-white glossy silver gelatin photo. Minor soiling to edges crease at bottom right corner 1929 holograph note on verso. Near fine. Rare is this image of cast with crew so many waiting to be identified with many of the top artists at Paramount Studios. The film is notable for being both the debut of Jeanette MacDonald and the first talkie film made by Ernst Lubitsch. The picture was also released in a French-language version called Parade d'amour. Maurice Chevalier thought he would never be capable of acting as a royal courtier and had to be persuaded by Lubitsch. This huge box-office hit appeared just after the Wall Street crash and did much to save the fortunes of Paramount Studios. The major players of this groundbreaking early sound musical are present in the front row including Lupino Lane Lubitsch MacDonald Chevalier and likely cinematographer Victor Milner at left behind Jeanette. He won the Academy Award for Best Cinematography. He and Lubitsch are mentioned in the handwritten note on verso. The notations also specifically indicate the filming dates of June July and August 1929. Paramount unknown
