An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Key Book Still (Learn More) Cocoanut Grove, the 1938 Alfred Santell Boston Massachusetts all-star nightclub romantic musical ("Original Story and Screen Play by Sy Bartlett & Olive Cooper"; there is very little plot in this Paramount all-star musical, and it is mostly a series of production numbers; even though it takes place in the famous Cocoanut Grove nightclub, it was actually all filmed on a Paramount back lot) starring Fred MacMurray, Harriet Hilliard, the Yacht Club Boys, Ben Blue, Rufe Davis, Billy Lee, Eve Arden, Virginia Vale (billed as "Dorothy Howe"), and Harry Owens and his Royal Hawaiian Orchestra. Note that the famous real-life nightclub burned to the ground in 1942 killing 492 people, including some celebrities, in one of the worst structure fires in U.S. history. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, printed on a deluxe heavyweight paper stock. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still. Condition: very good. The left 1" was neatly trimmed off (see above). Otherwise, the still is in pretty nice condition!
