Gayety! Glamour! And gobs of fun!") starring Van Johnson, June Allyson, Gloria DeHaven, Jose Iturbi, Jimmy Durante, Gracie Allen, Lena Horne, Harry James, Helen Forrest (Harry James & Helen Forrest billed as "Harry James and His Music Makers with Helen Forrest"), Xavier Cugat, Lina Romay (Xavier Cugat & Lina Romay billed as "Xavier Cugat & his Orchestra with Lina Romay"), Tom Drake, Henry Stephenson, Henry O'Neill, Ben Blue, Carlos Ramirez, Frank Sully, Albert Coates, Donald Meek, Amparo Novarro, Virginia O'Brien, the Wilde Twins, and Ava Gardner (this was one of her early uncredited roles; surprisingly, she had many of them before she was "discovered"). Note that at this time, Paramount had created several "all-star" movies featuring dozens of their top stars, and this MGM musical was similar, except that their very top stars were not present (mostly because they were off in the military!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some pretty minor wear on the foldlines. It had pinholes and paper loss around the edges, with smudges in the white background areas. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but the restorer chose to paint over the white background areas and the borders, to "even them out", and this is somewhat noticeable, but not really distracting.
