Silk Stockings, the 1957 Rouben Mamoulian romantic love triangle musical comedy ("Suggested by 'Ninotchka' by Melchior Lengyel"; with "Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter"; "Big, Bouncy and Beautiful on the Big Screen!"; "It's got that hot beat in top-hat and tails.... 'The Ritz Roll and Rock'"; "The song sensation that's all excitement and enticement... 'Satin and Silk'"; "The gay life in the city of romance sun in 'Paris Loves Lovers'"; "High jinx and hilarity set to Russky rhythm in 'Hail Bibinski' and more"; "Book of Original Musical Play by George S. Kaufman") starring Fred Astaire, Cyd Charisse, Janis Paige, Peter Lorre, Jules Munshin, George Tobias, and Joseph Buloff. Note that there had been a non-musical version of this story under the title "Ninotchka" in the 1930s with Greta Garbo in the lead role.

Important Added Info: Note that although this still was "printed in Great Britain", it has full NSS information. Perhaps it was intended to be used in both countries (we have heard from collectors who saw these color stills in U.S. theaters at the time the movies were released, but we have not heard from any English collectors as to whether they were used in England at that time). If any English collector knows if this was or was not used in English theaters when the movies were released, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Condition: very good to fine. Note that we show a scan of the front of the still, with a scan of the back of the still beneath it (even if the back is completely blank), so you can see what is on both sides of the still, and also better judge the condition of the still.
