To love!"; a wacky story of a disgraced bandleader who can't get a job, so he becomes the leader of an all-blonde band, but they are going nowhere until the black janitor, named Exodus Johnson, suggests they play black "swing" music, and then they become a giant hit) starring James Melton, Patricia Ellis, Marie Wilson, Fred Keating, Dick Purcell, Winifred Shaw, Craig Reynolds, Charles Foy, Gordon Elliott, and Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson (as Exodus Johnson). Note that Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson had some important parts in mid 1930s all-black movies, but in Hollywood movies, he only played stereotyped roles, and then in 1937 he joined with Jack Benny and they stayed together for the rest of his career! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good. There is paper loss and some tears around the edges, more so in the bottom right corner. There are water stains scattered in the bottom of the card. The card certainly should have immediate restoration, but its defects are in the borders and in the background areas. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
