Set of 12 vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm black-and-white photos one with mimeographed text on verso three with the film's title stamped on verso overall just about fine. Josef von Sternberg's first talking film. Some historians credit his importance in the evolution of gangster films with his UNDERWORLD 1927. This was by any standard the first significant talking gangster film. It tells the story of a criminal facing execution who wants to kill the man in the next cell for being in love with his former girlfriend. Sternberg experimented with asynchronous sound effects which served to augment or supplement the visual effects or as he framed the process "To be correctly and effectively used the sound had to bring to the image a quality other than what the lens included a quality out of the range of the image. Sound had to counterpoint or compensate for the image add to it – not subtract from it." Rather than the external and complementary musical accompaniment of silent films Sternberg's scores arise organically with the mise-en-scène and form a key component of the film. The music off-screen does not recede in deference to the on-screen dialogue but competes with it. Off-screen voices comment on the visual action but are not identified visually until later in the film sequence contributing to an "unrealistic cadence" that characterizes the film's dialogue. Film historian Andrew Sarris describes it as "a startling experiment. his use of sound and music for mood effects and the very unreality of his style seems to justify the unusual density of his sound track." Sternberg also uses sound expressionistically such as the erratic start-stop of a sewing machine or the "sinister" squeaking of a dog's ball toy squeezed by the condemned criminal in the hours before his death.

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."
