The Dancing Stars of 'Bolero' Together Again!"; Raft and Lombard had a giant hit with "Bolero", so it was natural that the studio wanted to re-team them in a similar "dancing" romantic movie; in this one, Lombard is an heiress and Raft is a half-Cuban half-American gangster/dancer, on the run from the mob in Havana, but then he returns to New York City, and they have a falling out over a winning lottery ticket, but as you can imagine, everything works out in the end and they do some great dancing together!) starring George Raft, Carole Lombard, Margo, Lynne Overman, Monroe Owsley, Iris Adrian, and Gail Patrick NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

Prior to paperbacking, the card had a horizontal fold across the top 1" of the image, with a diagonal tear running from the center of the top of the image down through the top of Raft's forehead and into the cheek and hair of Lombard in the image of them dancing.
