Description

Cover Girl (Columbia, 1944). Three Sheet (41" X 81").
Charles Vidor was the director of record, but Gene Kelly had a large amount of creative input, and many credit his ideas for the film's enduring appeal. Rita Hayworth stars as a dancer and aspiring Broadway star who gets her big break when a wealthy theatrical producer stages a musical just for her, but her old boss and flame (Kelly) is threatened. Condition issues included pinholes in the borders and background, edge tears, some of which extend into the field, a long tear in Hayworth's dress and legs, crossfold separations with some chips, chips in the borders, at the sheet joins, and one small chip in the dress, all of which has been addressed with professional restoration. Fine+ on Linen.
