It Happened in Harlem (All-American, 1945). One Sheet (27 X 41). , Little is known about this mid-1940s jazz film, save the names of the featured performers. Perhaps most outstanding of all the musicians listed was the famed Christopher Columbus, leader of the Swing Crew. Columbus led his own band for more than two decades, beginning in the 1930s, and played such prestigious venues as Harlems Savoy Ballroom. In later years, he played with Louis Jourdan, Wild Bill Davis, and, in the 1960s, Duke Ellington. With a career that continued well into the 1990s, Columbus died shortly after his 100th birthday in 2002. This film was one of the only screen appearances for many of the musicians involved, making it a rare and desirable piece for any jazz enthusiast. It had some crossfold separation with missing paper at the top fold line, and a chip in the top border, but these slight flaws have been rendered virtually invisible after the application of expert professional restoration. Swing on by and bid on this baby! Fine/Very Fine on Linen.
