An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (measures 14" x 21") (Learn More)

Broadway Melody of 1940, the 1940 Norman Taurog New York musical ("Together at last in the most eye-staggering musical spectacle ever staged!"; "The World's Greatest Dancers in the World's Greatest Musical!") starring Fred Astaire, Eleanor Powell, George Murphy, Frank Morgan, Ian Hunter, Florence Rice, and Lynne Carver. Note that Fred Astaire made movies at RKO and Eleanor Powell made movies at MGM, so they could never appear together, but in 1940, when Astaire moved over to MGM, they could finally be paired (hence the tagline "Together at last...").
