Warner, Margaret McWade, Margaret Seddon, Emma Dunn, Walter Catlett, and Margarete Matzenauer. This movie was re-made in 2002 (as "Mr. Deeds") by Adam Sandler, with himself in the starring role. Also note that the plot of this movie is very similar to Times Square Lady, which came out the previous year, but with the sex of the heroes reversed (and the source stories for the two were written by different people). Interestingly, this movie was originally titled "Opera Hat", and it seems that it centered on the part of the story where Cooper becomes the head of the New York Opera House, and while that subplot was retained, the plot was greatly expanded!

Important Added Info: Note that these key book stills are on a deluxe heavyweight paper stock and have an extra 1" on the left or top of the stills with punch holes (where the stills were kept in a binder). One though, has been trimmed (see our images). Also note that these stills have an ink pad stamp on back that attributes the photography to "Irving Lippmann"! Condition: good to very good.
