The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle, the 1939 H.C. Potter biographical vaudeville dancing romantic musical comedy ("Dramatic! Thrilling! Beautiful!"; "The Texas Tommy"; "The Maxixe"; "The Castle Walk"; "The Tango"; "At last Fred and Ginger in a great Dramatic Love Story!"; "Adaptation by Oscar Hammerstein II & Dorothy Yost") starring Fred Astaire (in the title role as Vernon Castle), Ginger Rogers (in the title role as Irene Castle), Edna May Oliver, Walter Brennan, Lew Fields, Etienne Girardot, and Janet Beecher. Note that this was the last of the nine wonderful movies that Astaire and Rogers made between 1933 and 1939 (they made one final movie, "The Barkleys of Broadway", ten years later in 1949).

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this poster has full-bleed borders on the left and right and has NOT been trimmed. This was done by RKO with their daybills in the 1940s and early 1950s. Advanced Australian collectors tell us that this is how all the daybills of this title were created. Please do not bid on this daybill thinking that it has been trimmed as it certainly was not.

Condition: very good to fine. There is a 1" diagonal tear in the left of the top blank border and 1/2" of separation at the left end of the middle foldline. Otherwise, the poster has only the most minor of fold and border wear and is overall in really nice condition!
