Topper Takes a Trip, the 1939 Norman Z. McLeod romantic fantasy ghost divorce comedy sequel ("Topper is back and in trouble again!"; "More trouble for Topper... More fun for you!"; "Thorne Smith's famous Topper is on the loose again... with his vanishing girlfriend and her bag of tricks!"; produced by Hal Roach; in this sequel, Mrs. Topper is considering divorcing Mr. Topper, and in a complicated story, he goes on a trip to France, and the ghost of Marion Kerby and her dog Mr. Atlas help him get reunited with his wife) starring Constance Bennett (as Marion Kerby), Roland Young (in the title role as Cosmo Topper), Billie Burke (as Mrs. Topper), Alan Mowbray, Verree Teasdale, Franklin Pangborn, Alexander D'arcy, Mr. Atlas, Asta (billed as "Skippy"), and Paul Hurst. Note that Topper was an extremely successful 1937 fantasy that starred Constance Bennett and Cary Grant as a young couple that dies and return as ghosts to help Roland Young. But when they wanted to make a sequel two years later, Cary Grant declined to participate (he was too big a star!), so a script was written where he was still in Heaven, and Constance Bennett was accompanied by a dog, Mr. Atlas (played by Asta, the famous dog from the"Thin Man" series!). Two years later, another sequel was made, but Bennett did not return for this sequel, and Joan Blondell starred as a different ghost in need of Mr. Topper's help.

Important Added Info: Note that in October and November of 2017, we auctioned a wonderful collection of around 60 photos (most measured 3.5x5.25, but some measured slightly smaller) that were taken by a man who worked at a large movie theater in the late 1930s and early 1940s. He created wonderful theater fronts and homemade posters (some that were displayed outside the theater and some inside the theater), and after he finished making his displays, he would take a picture of each and then he put them in a scrapbook. Collectors rightfully bid aggressively on these photos, and the best of them auctioned for hundreds of dollars each! Now we are offering another 32 photos from this amazing scrapbook, and after this, there will just be a few bulk lots of the remaining photos (either because they are from much lesser movies or are in lesser condition). So this is the last chance to acquire these very rare to find photos of original theater fronts and local theater displays from this time period. Each of the 32 photos is in a separate auction with this paragraph on them.
