Vintage studio still photograph from the 1960 film. Extremely watchable trash, a big-budget film with lowdown agenda, and the last film in which Elizabeth Taylor, who won an Oscar for her performance, could have been accurately described as young and radiant. Something of an American answer to De Sica's "Madame De." with the object in question being a fur coat rather than a pair of earrings. Shot on location in New York. 8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with extensive annotations to the verso in red felt-tipped ink, blue ink, and manuscript graphite.…

Original vintage reference photograph from the 1957 film, showing actor Arthur Kennedy. Based on the 1956 novel by Grace Metalious. Gossip is pervasive in a small New England town, leading everyone to do what they can to hide their secrets and scandals until they boil over. The film tied with "The Little Foxes" (1941) for the most Academy Award nominations-but no wins. Set in the fictional New England town of Peyton Place, shot on location in Maine, New Hampshire, and New York. 8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with splash at top left corner.…

Faint creases overall, else Near Fine.…

Vintage pressbook for the 1965 film. With several promotional pages laid in. A poor farmer wants to sell his daughter to a traveling bathing suit salesman in order to save his farm. A slapstick entry in the hicksploitation genre. One leaf, bi-fold. 11 x 17 inches. Very Good plus overall.

Vintage oversize, double weight, borderless still photograph from the 1961 film. Shot, struck, and mounted by the film's still photographer, Bob Willoughby, with his ASMP rubber stamp on the verso. Full provenance available. Based on Lillian Hellman's 1934 play, about two teachers at an all-girls boarding school accused of being in a lesbian relationship by one of the students, ruining the careers and personal lives of both. The play was previously adapted by William Wyler in 1936 as "These Three," though the Production Code forced Hellman to change the substance of the rumor from homosexuality to infidelity. The 1961 version restores the content of the child's lie, and is overall incredibly faithful to the stage play. Nominated for five Academy Awards, including a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Fay Bainter. After studying with Saul Bass at the Kann Institute of Art in Los Angeles, photographer Robert Willoughby began working for magazines such as "Life," "Look," and "Harper's Bazaar" in the late 1940s. He spent the next 20-plus years as a set photographer for every major studio and magazine, with his images seen in print literally every week of his career. Willoughby's photographs are in the permanent collections of ten museums, including The National Portrait Galleries in Washington, DC and London, the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, The Museum of Modern Art, and The Tate Modern. 13.5 x 9.25 inches. Near Fine.…

Set of 3 vintage snapshot-size keybook publicity photographs for both the 1957 and 1958 films, with punch holes at the left (or top) margin as called for. Each photograph shows a different take of actors Diane Varsi and Christine Carére sitting side-by-side in matching chairs, each reading (and showing each other) a first edition of "Peyton Place" and a first edition of Françoise Sagan's "A Certain Smile." Both films were produced and released by Twentieth Century-Fox. To our knowledge, snapshot-size reference photographs were utilized only by Twentieth Century-Fox, during a period roughly between 1940-1965, and are very scarce, particularly in the keybook format. Based on the 1956 novel by Grace Metalious. Gossip is pervasive in a small New England town, leading everyone to do what they can to hide their secrets and scandals until they boil over. The film tied with "The Little Foxes" (1941) for the most Academy Award nominations-but no wins. Set in the fictional New England town of Peyton Place, shot on location in Maine, New Hampshire, and New York. 4 x 5 inches. All photos Near Fine or better.…
