Vintage original 8x10 in. U.S. single-weight glossy publicity photograph from the classic 1930's musical comedy/fantasy, ALI BABA GOES TO TOWN, released in 1937 by 20th Century-Fox and directed by David Butler, starring Eddie Cantor. A movie company is doing the Arabian Nights when a hobo (Eddie Cantor) enters their camp, falls asleep and dreams he's back in Baghdad as adviser to the Sultan. In a spoof of Roosevelt's New Deal, he organizes work programs, taxes the rich and abolishes the army. The image features a beautiful interior medium shot of the Sultan (Roland Young) inside his palace as he enjoys a happy moment with his beautiful blonde daughter, Princess Miriam (June Lang), as she looks at him adoringly. Printed on single-weight stock with a glossy finish, this vintage original photograph is in very fine+ condition with no visible flaws. Please note that this photograph actually has more contrast and features richer dark tones than they appear in the accompanying scan. Two special-effects technicians--grip Harry Harsha and propman Philo Goodfriend--were killed when a machine that was being used to make the "flying carpet" look like it was flying jumped off its tracks and fell on them. Star Eddie Cantor appears as himself in the film's final sequence with Tony Martin. Newsreel footage of the many stars appearing at the Carthay Circle Theatre premiere of Wee Willie Winkie (1937), starring Shirley Temple, is used for the film's finale. The original release prints of this film used a then-revolutionary three-tone tinting process utilizing sepia and copper. Blue and orange mixed with copper were used for night sequences while sepia, amber and copper were used for daytime scenes.
