Original Sheet Music (9×12) for the song “They Can’t Take That Away From Me” sung in the Mark Sandrich musical comedy, SHALL WE DANCE (1937) starring Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Edward Everett Horton, and Eric Blore. With music by George Gershwin, lyrics by Ira Gershwin, and sung by Fred Astaire—the song was played during the opening credits and often in the score. Although the photo shows the image slightly eclipsed, the real sheet music has not been trimmed in any way and is in very fine condition.

Rogers plays a convict released from the state penitentiary for Christmas leave. On the train, she meets and befriends a soldier (Cotton) who has just been released from a mental hospital.

Original Polish Poster (12×16) for the Howard Hawks screwball comedy, MONKEY BUSINESS(1952) starring Cary Grant, Ginger Rogers, Marilyn Monroe and Charles Coburn. An absolutely insane plot involving monkeys, a secret chemical formula, romance, and hysterical dementia utilizes all the comic abilities of the lead actors. Poster design features the classic image of Marilyn with her dress blowing up from the subway air exhaust (THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH) while a chimpanzee leers at her. Very Fine. Note that this is a rather small poster.

Original 20th Century-Fox Title Lobby Card (11×14) for the Julien Duvivier romantic comedy, TALES OF MANHATTAN (1942) starring Charles Boyer, Rita Hayworth, Ginger Rogers, Henry Fonda, Charles Laughton, and Edward G. Robinson. This extremely well crafted and engaging film was made during the period in Hollywood when “anthology” films were all he rage by using large casts to tell several interconnected stories. The connection in all the stories is a tuxedo tailcoat that passes through the hands of several diverse people in New York City. This original title card has portraits of nearly all the major characters in the film and is in very fine condition.

Original 1953 Re-Release One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Mark Sandrich RKO musical, FOLLOW THE FLEET (1936)— starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in one of their best performances.

This is an original Paramount Pictures Title Lobby Card (11×14) for the Mitchell Leisen musical romance, LADY IN THE DARK (1944) starring Ginger Rogers, Ray Milland, and Warner Baxter. Paramount paid $285,000 for the film rights to this Gertrude Lawrence/Moss Hart/Kurt Weill stage hit, a record for the time. Rogers plays fashion magazine editor Liza, who finds herself having headaches and feeling generally dissatisfied. Finally going to a psychiatrist in desperation, she recalls her dreams where she bursts into lavish musical numbers, which feature her as the epitome of musical glamour. Indeed, Vincente Minnelli and Judy Garland named their daughter Liza Minnelli after this part. This original scene card is in very fine condition. As a rule, Paramount Pictures did not issue a title lobby card with their lobby card sets. This is one of the very few exceptions to that policy at Paramount!

This is an original pre World War II Belgian Poster (23×33) for the Mark Sandrich RKO musical FOLLOW THE FLEET (1936), staring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in one of their best performances.

With beautiful images of the great dancing duo, this original Belgium stone lithograph poster has been linen backed and is in very fine condition.

Original 20th Century-Fox Half Sheet Poster (22×28) for the Edmund Goulding teen drama, TEENAGE REBEL (1956) starring Ginger Rogers, Michael Rennie, and Betty Lou Keim. Dodie (Keim), the fifteen-year-old daughter of Rogers (in one of her last feature films), is not so much a rebel as the sad child of a divorce. She has been estranged from her mother for eight years since her parents’ divorce. But when she is finally sent to her mother so her father can secretly get married, she must learn to accept her mother and new stepfather. In all, the film is an excellent attempt to dramatize the effects of divorce on a child at a time when divorce was still unusual. This original half sheet poster is in very fine condition.
