Important Added Info: Note that this still shows star Jack Oakie with five "Paramount starlets". These were beautiful girls who went to Hollywood and were signed to contracts by major studios, but most of the time their careers never materialized, and sadly, all five of these women never had much of any career, only uncredited roles (but someone saw the name "Gail Sheridan", and they hoped that it was Ann Sheridan, and they wrote that name below it, but it is NOT Ann Sheridan!). 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. Condition: very good to fine. The still is in very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
