The Wedding of the Painted Doll [sheet music] introduced in the MGM picture "Broadway Melody" directed by Harry Beaumont
San Francisco: Sherman , Clay & Co., 1929. Sheet_music. 8p. including covers, 9x12 inches, illustrated with cartoon depiction of the wedding featuring fairytale characters and a color photo of the twins in wedding drag, very good.
"Broadway Melody" was the first talky-musical released by MGM. Beaumont was an actor/director and the 7 year-old twins playing bride and groom were his daughters. Not really a drag item per se but camp all the same.
