Description
Please enlarge photos to see the excellent condition of the album and records. The records are shinier than they appear. Also see the detailed conditions listed separately. The enclosed booklet first page can be read in one of the photos especially when enlarged. This is Decca Album No. 1-481 complete on five ten-inch records. Here are some excerpts from it. "It is Irving Belin's Blue Skies, a Paramount Technicolor Production featuring Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire. Lyrics and Music by Irving Berlin, and Orchestra and Choir directed by John Scott Trotter." "Besides its warm, appealing, song-rich story and its stellar personalities, "Blue Skies" is notable for several other reasons. In it, Bing sings more songs than he has ever before sung in a single picture. It is Fred Astaire's valedictory film; upon its completion Fred announced that he was retiring from the screen." "Berlin penned the songs, Crosby sang them, and Astaire danced to them." "Settle back in your seat for one hour and forty-four minutes of delicious complications--dreamed up, incidentally, by song-maker Irving Berlin who conceived the idea not only for the famous song but for the film "Blue Skies" as well, in addition to contributing a very grand total of twenty-eight tunes to the picture."
It will be well packaged and several shipping options are offered. Both Media Mail and Priority are listed. I suggest Priority. Let me know if you are interested in insurance. Also ask any questions.
