Moon Over Burma, the 1940 Louis King Asia romantic love triangle jungle melodrama ("Blazing with the fervor of Burma love and crackling with the jungle tempo of thrills!"; "Ready to love or fight... at a moment's notice!"; "Based on a story by Wilson Collison") starring Dorothy Lamour, Robert Preston, Preston Foster, Doris Nolan, and Albert Basserman. Note that the "sarong girl" image that Dorothy Lamour had started a few years earlier was apparently growing old, because in the studio publicity for this movie, she was called the "new" Dorothy Lamour, and they said "Gone are the studied languor, the posing, and the sarong! This time she swaps cracks at every turn with her co-stars and maintains her high reputation as a singer". Also note that when this movie was being filmed, it had two elephants in it that had been used for many movies, named Sally and Queenie. During filming, they were tragically killed in a fire, and the studio needed more footage with an elephant, so they took a different elephant, Duchess, and put paint on her to make her look more like one of the elephants that had passed away!

GRADING: We use comic book grading standards, as defined by Overstreet and Comic Guarantee Corp., for grading all of our paper collectibles.   These strict standards are well-developed and widely accepted.  The various grades we use are generally applied as follows:

Near Mint - item is bright and clean, virtually defect-free and appears "like new"... image is sharp... any defects would be barely perceptible and only visible upon close inspection.

Very Fine / Near Mint - at first glance appears near mint but upon close inspection very minor degradation or one or two very small defects become apparent.

Very Fine - generally clean and bright and still high grade and desirable but may have a few small defects (e.g., minor corner crease, light bend, subtle image degradation, etc.).

Fine - average grade... nice collectible item but defects are more noticeable and apparent.. may have some soiling or image issues.

Very Good - lower grade... wear and tear is readily apparent... item is still complete though.

Good -  low grade... heavy defects... could be a piece missing from a corner or a major tear.

Fair or poor - the lowest grades... we generally only offer items in this condition if they are hard to find.
