Condizione: Very good. - A 7-1/2 inch high by 9-7/8 inch wide glossy black & white vintage photograph depicting Ginger Rogers facing a class consisting of 4 students at their desks as Basil Rathbone, attired in a smoking jacket at her side, teaches his promising Paris pickpockets. The number "HB-18" is printed in white along the bottom right of the image. Very good. This a vintage publicity photo, not a reproduction, sent out to cinemas at the time. Text describing the scene is mounted with glue on the verso. It reads: "CONTINUITY LAYOUT NO. 2. Heartbeat - Story in Pictures - No mean judge of talent, Professor Aristed (Basil Rathbone) recognizes fine 'lifting' possibilities in lovely Arlette (Ginger Rogers) and tricks her into joining his Paris school for pickpockets. Rather than return to the girl's reformatory from which she has escaped, Arlette accepts the free lodging and expert instruction which the Professor provides hi students against the day of future 'withdrawals'." After escaping from a reformatory for girls, Ginger Rogers becomes the best student in Dr. Aristide's Parisian school for pickpockets. She is soon caught by an elderly Ambassador played by Adolphe Menjou whose stickpin she attempted to lift. The Ambassador blackmails her into stealing a watch from a handsome young attache played by Jean-Pierre Aumont. As events unfold, she soon falls in love with the young man.
