The Boy Friend Original British program for the 1971 film

Vintage program for the 1971 film.<br /> <br /> Based on the 1953 West End musical by Sandy Wilson about a mousy stage manager forced to take the lead in a low-budget musical revue after the lead actress breaks her leg.

Bi-fold. Very Good plus with light soiling foxing and creasing. MGM / EMI unknown
