New York: National General Pictures, 1972. Collection of 8 vintage still photographs from the 1972 film. Based loosely on the writings and illustrations of James Thurber, which were in turn based on Thurber's own life. Adhesive residue to the verso of all photographs, with mimeograph snipe tipped on to the verso of two photos. Item also includes a three-page cast and crew list on Cinema Center Films letterhead.

Jack Lemmon plays a jaded, nearsighted cartoonist who falls for a single mother of three (Barbara Harris) against his own bachelor tendencies. The film utilizes a combination of both live action and animated scenes in order to portray Thurber's life as he himself had done.

Set in Manhattan.

8 x 10 inches. All photos Near Fine or better.
