Description: PolyesterDivineTab HunterEdith MasseyMink StoleJay Leno Vintage Promotional Postcard / Invitation Up for auction is a vintage souvenir promotional advertising postcard / invitation, measuring approximately 9 by 6 inches in size. This single sheet, double sided, card stock invitation was to publicize New Line Cinema's "Polyester", written, produced and directed by John Waters, and featuring Divine, Tab Hunter, Edith Massey, Mink Stole and Jay Leno (although he is uncredited). The movie is an American comedy satire film, that was filmed in Baltimore, Maryland, and featured "Odorama", a gimmick where viewers could smell what they were seeing on the screen, by using "Scratch and Sniff" cards that were distributed in the theatre. It premiered in theaters on May 29, 1981, and this invitation was for "The Divine Tea Dance", "An Evening Honoring The World's Greatest Star", held on Sunday, April 26, 1981, a month prior to the movie's premiere. Billed as the "World's Largest Stag Party", the Tea Dance was held at The Underground, in New York City, starting at 7:00 PM, and hosted by Divine herself.The postcard / invitation is unused, and is in great, vintage condition, with both front and back surfaces clean and the colors bright. At this time and over the next few months, I will be selling a number of vintage heralds, playbills, souvenir programs, as well as other movie and theatre memorabilia, and will combine shipping if at all possible.

The shipping and handling charges are for the continental United States only. All others must wait for a revised invoice with additional charges for air mail service. Thank you for looking. If you have any questions or would like additional information or pictures, please e-mail me as I would be happy to provide additional details. Please note that all items being sold come from a smoke-free and pet-free home. I am not a professional dealer, and am simply downsizing after years of collecting. I try very hard to accurately list and describe the condition of each item that I sell, and can appreciate the frustration of receiving an item that is not as described. Being human, I will occasionally make a mistake, and may miss a flaw or imperfection that would leave one dissatisfied with their purchase. If this occurs, and you feel that the item you receive is not as described, please contact me immediately. My goal is that each individual who buys from me is happy with their purchase.
