GONE WITH THE WIND ALBUM COVER TOTE

GONE WITH THE WIND SOUNDTRACK LP TOTE - Adapted from the hugely successful novel by Margaret Mitchell, this sprawling historical romance set in the South against the backdrop of the Civil War and Reconstruction era, was a monumental effort produced by David O. Selznick. This was a much-delayed production because Selznick waited two years to secure Clark Gable as the roguish Rhett Butler. There was a much-publicized, nationwide search for the perfect Scarlett O’Hara with 1400 actresses interviewed for the part. After filming started, British actress and beauty Vivien Leigh was offered the role. She and Gable were joined by Leslie Howard, as Ashley and Olivia de Havilland, as Melanie. Winner of 10 Academy Awards in 1939, with adjustment for monetary inflation of ticket prices, the film remains the highest-grossing film in history. Although “GWTW” has grown more controversial because of its racial stereotypes, many moviegoers are still entranced by the film’s sheer entertainment value and the scope of its production. This stunning, historical piece highlights the famous art of Rhett carrying Scarlett and the fabrics are magnificent. Extendable strap can be worn over the shoulder or cross-body.
