And Here's All The Delight Of That Ever-So-Bright Marvel Of Merriment And Melody ...From Warner Bros."; "Warner Bros marvel Of merriment And melody"; "With The Stars And Songs, And Gags And Gals Of The 2-Year-Run Play!"; "He's Here!

Entertainment Delight of Delights!"; "Ray Bolger Bowls 'em Over in Where's Charley?"; in the title role as Charley Wykeham), Allyn Ann McLerie (billed as "Allyn McLerie"), Robert Shackleton, Horace Cooper, and Margaretta Scott. Note that the play "Charley's Aunt" was written in 1890, and was incredibly popular on stage for many years, and was adapted into many movie versions. This was a movie adaptation of the Broadway play, which was first produced in 1948 and ran for 792 performances, and when this movie version was made, Ray Bolger and the other top stars reprised their roles from the Broadway play. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these stills appear in every way to be original U.S. release EXCEPT that there is one very tiny line of French type in the lower right of each still. It reads, "IMPRIME AUX ETATS-UNIS D'AMERIQUE". A collector has told us that he believes this means the stills were printed for use in areas that included French-speaking parts of Canada, but that they WERE printed in the U.S., and that makes complete sense to us (and we have seen this on stills from the 1940s through the early 2000s, so it has certainly been done for an extremely long time)! So they are original stills from 1952, but they were printed partially for use in French-speaking Canada. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good. The stills are in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
