[I. Cubillo]

Could it be for the leggs of Mrs. Raye when she comes down the fire
stairscase?

> Anyone know why this clip with Louis Armstrong and Martha Raye was
censored when it came out in 1937? I like it a lot. Vincente Minnelli
apparently conceived it. The only thing I heard on first viewing that would
be considered objectionable then was a reference in the lyrics?to "all the
tea in Harlem."
