An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" Movie Still (Learn More) The Fleet's In, the 1942 Victor Schertzinger Navy Naval military sailor romantic love triangle musical ("Based on the Story by Monte Brice and J. Walter Ruben, and a Play by Kenyon Nicholson and Charles Robinson") starring Dorothy Lamour, William Holden, Eddie Bracken, Betty Hutton, Betty Jane Rhodes, Leif Erickson, Barbara Britton, and Jimmy Dorsey & His Orchestra, Bob Eberly, and Helen O'Connell (Eberly and O'Connell are billed as "Featuring Bob Eberly and Helen O'Connell"). Note that this movie was made right before the U.S. entered World War II, but was released after Pearl Harbor, so therefore was likely one of the very last military movies made before the war! Also note that this movie was a remake of the 1928 movie of the same name starring Clara Bow, and it was remade in 1952 with Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin, re-titled "Sailor Beware". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that a paper snipe was glued to the back of the still, and then folded over to the front. Normally, this was done rather than gluing the snipe to the back, so that the snipe could be unfolded and the still could be displayed with the snipe unfolded, which would let moviegoers read the information on the snipe in the lobby. However, this snipe was glued on so that the written portion is only readable when the snipe is folded over the bottom of the still, which slightly defeats this purpose (although one can see the top of the still and the snipe at the same time, which could not be done if the snipe was glued on the back). This was done with many stills of the 1930s, but often, the snipes are either partially or completely lost, because it is easier for them to be torn off. UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, THE SNIPE DOES NOT HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE FRONT OF THE STILL! Condition: very good. The still is lightly rippled in the far right of the image (caused when the snipe on the back was glued on). It is more "felt" than seen. There are faint emulsion scuffs scattered throughout the still, but they are truthfully not very noticeable except when the still is tilted to the light. Learn More about condition grades
