About this Item

Not a book but a 10-inch, 33-1/3 rpm vinyl record album, MGM Unbreakable Long Playing Microgroove (mono) E-516, very-good-plus vinyl in a very-good-plus cardboard jacket. Film biography of songwriters Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby, played by Astaire and Skelton, the unlikely duo offering "So Long, Ooh-Long," etc., though the prize here is doubtless Helen Kane's (the Betty Boop gal's) rendition of "I Wanna Be Loved By You." (Did Kane really dub the song for young Debbie Reynolds, whose similar dubbing for Jean Hagen became a major plot point two years later in Gene Kelly's "Singin' in the Rain"?) This album catalogs $60 in "near-mint," though we've graded this one a bit lower. Reduced from $14.
