(Learn More) The Music Goes 'Round, the 1936 Victor Schertzinger romantic musical screwball comedy ("The Wonder Show of 1936"; about a Broadway star who goes on a trip to the Midwest, and he sees performers on a showboat who he feels are so bad that they are good, and he gets them to come to Broadway and do their act in his new show, and they become a giant hit, because the audiences are laughing at them, but they don't realize that until the climax of the movie) starring Harry Richman, Rochelle Hudson, Walter Connolly, Douglass Dumbrille, Lionel Stander, Michael Bartlett, Henry Mollison, and Farley & Riley ("and their 'Round and 'Round music"). Note that Farley and Riley were Edward Farley and Mike Riley, and they were real-life songwriters who appeared in this single movie naturally playing a pair of songwriters, and no others. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that when studios would prepare pressbooks they would often include a sample of the herald. Most often, the herald is no longer still with the pressbook. Sometimes, the herald by itself will sell for almost as much as the rest of the entire pressbook! This pressbook contains the original herald which is pictured next to the pressbook below. Also note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several. Almost every Academy Award winning movie would have a special "Academy Award winner" supplement. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook, and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut! Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. This very large pressbook (which measures 14" x 20") was folded across the middle at one time. The covers are almost completely separated and there is some wear down that area. There is staining in the top right corner of the front cover, with some other minor wear on the covers (see our images). Other than the above, the pressbook is in pretty good condition!
