Auction History Result 1f2122 JANE POWELL Dixie ice cream premium 1949 wonderful smiling head & shoulders portrait! Date Sold 12/21/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Dixie Ice Cream Premium Still (8x10; measures 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) (Learn More) Jane Powell is an actress and singer from the 1940s to the 1980s. Some of her movies, including many MGM musicals, include: Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Royal Wedding, Marie, A Date with Judy, and Two Weeks in Love. She broke into movies in an interesting way, as a teenager. She had been singing coloratura soprano on the radio when she was 14, and was given a chance to be in "Song of the Open Road" with W.C. Fields in 1944. I bet no one would have guessed she would go on to be a major musical star of the 1950s! As of 2021, she is still alive at the age of 92! Important Added Info: Note that this is a special color 8" x 10" item that was given away as a premium from the Dixie Cup company. The Dixie Cup company created a large number of such premiums, which were given away to kids who sent in Dixie Cup lids. Each premium would have a full-color image of the star on the front, and on the back was biographical information of that star, along with black & white scenes from some of their movies. Every Dixie Cup premium would have two punch holes in one border, and kids would be sent two "covers" (one front and one back) to create a "scrapbook" (the covers gave the instructions on how to make the scrapbook by binding the Dixie Cup premiums between the two covers "with color cord, shoe string, or ribbon". Note that these were first made in the mid-1930s, and they continued all the way to the early 1950s (when the two holes switched to the top of the premium). Condition: very good to fine.
