Description

Swing Time (RKO, 1936). Partial Pressbook (4 Pages, 13.5" X 17").
This sparkling RKO musical was the sixth film legendary dance team, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers would make together, many considering it to be the their very best. Directed by the great George Stevens, all of the elements in this film come together in spectacular fashion. There are six classic Jerome Kern tunes in the film, including the unforgettable "The Way You Look Tonight" (music by Jerome Kern, lyrics by Dorothy Fields, and sung by Astaire at the piano). As with most Astaire/Rogers films, the exquisitely choreographed dance numbers, lovely duets, and stunning Art Deco sets really make the movie. This partial pressbook has edge wear, the spine of the cover has some slight amount of splitting, some slight surface paper loss, tears in the pocket that would have held the promotional items. The folder has terrific photos inside and on the back cover from the film and examples of the promotional formats: 40" X 60" , Jumbo Window card, 24-sheet, 6-sheet, 3-sheet, 1-sheet, and Miniature Window Card. A unique find from a classic film! Fine.
