Auction History Result 5x788 MOON OVER MIAMI 4 8x10 stills '41 all with gorgeous Betty Grable + Don Ameche! Date Sold 3/27/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 4 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) Moon Over Miami, the 1941 Walter Lang Florida Everglades romantic musical ("Adaptation by George Seaton and Lynn Starling from a play by Stephen Powys"; "Lyrics and Music by Leo Robin & Ralph Rainger"; about two Texas girls losing an inheritance because of taxes and they travel to Miami to find rich husbands) starring Don Ameche, Betty Grable, Robert Cummings (Bob Cummings), Charlotte Greenwood, Jack Haley, Carole Landis, Cobina Wright Jr., Fortunio Bonanova, and Jack Cole. Note that Alberto Vargas did the artwork for the cover of the pressbook and the 24-sheet only on this movie, and both bear his signature. The pressbook explains that Vargas was commissioned to paint this image. Nowhere does it state that he did any of the other art for the movie, even though one of the one-sheets and the insert are often described as being Vargas art. It is my opinion that they are NOT drawn by Vargas, and certainly the pressbook backs that up. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these stills of Betty Grable have a wonderful provenance! They were consigned to us by the granddaughter of the lady who ran the Betty Grable fan club in the 1950s, and she developed a close friendship with Ms. Grable, and she was given a large number of first release stills (some personally autographed), and we are auctioning several of this consignor's sets of Betty Grable stills in this set of auctions. None of these are signed, because we will auction the signed ones in our auction of all autographed items. Condition: good to very good. There are some punch holes in one edge of the stills. They are either keybook stills, or someone could have just put those punch holes there. Learn More about condition grades
