Date Sold 9/10/2017Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Photographic Transparency (measures 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) (Learn More) Royal Wedding (released in Australia as "Wedding Bells"), the 1951 Stanley Donen New York/England romantic dancing marriage musical ("MGM's gayest Technicolor Musical!"; "The story of a famed singing, dancing, brother and sister team!"; "Story and Screen Play by Alan Jay Lerner"; "Music by Burton Lane"; "Lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner"; loosely based on the life of Fred Astaire and his sister Adele, and Fred got to play himself, and Jane Powell, who was 30 years younger than him, played his sister, when in real life, his sister was three years older than him!) starring Fred Astaire, Jane Powell, Peter Lawford, Sarah Churchill (daughter of Winston Churchill), Keenan Wynn, and Albert Sharpe. Note that this is the movie with the classic sequence where Fred Astaire literally dances all around a room, including both walls and the ceiling! Also note that Jane Powell is primarily known as a singing star, having started as a teen, but in this movie, she does quite a bit of dancing, and she does it quite well!

Important Added Info: Note that the 8x10 transparency in this auction (and 63 other 8x10 transparencies we are currently auctioning in separate auctions) is NOT one that was created by a studio and sent to to newspapers, magazines, TV stations, or reviewers, so that they could use them to create the highest quality ads. These 64 transparencies are of mostly classic movie posters, and they were surely created in the 1990s or later, surely by either an auction house that was auctioning these items, or by a collector who owned these items, and wanted the highest quality image made from that poster. They are NOT from when the movie was first made, but from MUCH later. Please bear this in mind before bidding on this transparency (and also bear in mind that there ARE over 300 transparency lots in this auction that ARE from when the movies were made, and were made by the studios). Each transparency is clearly marked as to which kind they are (and they are in separate sections in the auction, to make it less likely anyone could confuse them). Even though this is not a vintage transparency, and was photographed after the movie came out from a poster, it can still be used to make very high quality reproductions, but bear in mind that we are solely auctioning the physical transparencies and NOT the right to reproduce them, so unless they are public domain, the new owner must acquire the rights elsewhere before reproducing them. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
