Date Sold 10/14/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Love Happy, the 1949 David Miller musical screwball comedy ("New Musical Girlesque!!!"; "Their Newest! Funniest! Musical!") starring the Marx Brothers (Groucho, Chico, and Harpo), Ilona Massey ("Screendom's most beautiful blonde!"), Vera-Ellen ("Thrills in the torrid 'Sadie Thompson' dance!"), Marion Hutton ("She swings with the strings of your heart!"), Raymond Burr, Melville Cooper, Leon Belasco, Paul Valentine, Eric Blore, Bruce Gordon, Otto Waldis, and Marilyn Monroe (in only her second credited movie role!). What is remarkable is that the people who designed the posters put pictures of three pretty girls on them, but did not manage to make Marilyn Monroe one of them, surely a major blunder. She WAS pictured on one of the lobby cards, but that seems to have been almost by chance! I know this was because she was unknown at the time, but I would think they would have recognized her obvious assets! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that Marilyn Monroe was not pictured on the posters, and was only pictured on one lobby card. However, this still has a wonderful image of young sexy Marilyn Monroe. The movie was re-released in 1953, to capitalize on Monroe's great success in the intervening four years, but this still is from the 1949 first release, and it is extremely rare! Condition: good. The still had a 3" scratch in the lower right. It must have caused surface paper loss, because someone put pen over part of that area, and on a small circular area above it (see our image).
