Offered here is a spectacular piece of Golden Age Hollywood and early rock ’n’ roll memorabilia: the original 1963 U.S. pressing of the Bye Bye Birdie Original Soundtrack Recording (RCA Victor LOC-1081, Mono, Hollywood Pressing), signed on the front cover by three of the film\'s biggest stars: Ann-Margret, Dick Van Dyke, and Bobby Rydell.

Ann-Margret\'s signature appears in blue felt-tip pen on the upper right of the cover. Bobby Rydell signed in blue at the upper left. Dick Van Dyke signed in black felt-tip pen on the left side of the cover. All three signatures are bold, clearly legible, and have been individually forensically authenticated by GFA.

The 1963 film Bye Bye Birdie, directed by George Sidney and produced by Fred Kohlmar for Columbia Pictures, was a landmark musical comedy adapted from the Tony Award-winning 1960 Broadway show. It was Dick Van Dyke\'s feature film debut—he reprised his Broadway role as Albert Peterson—and it catapulted the 22-year-old Ann-Margret to superstardom. The film premiered at Radio City Music Hall and broke the theater\'s all-time opening-week box office record. It received two Academy Award nominations and remains a beloved classic of the American musical genre.

The Bye Bye Birdie Original Soundtrack Recording was released by RCA Victor in 1963. The film\'s screenplay was written by Irving Brecher, adapted from Michael Stewart\'s book for the Broadway show. The score features songs by composer Charles Strouse and lyricist Lee Adams, with musical direction by Johnny Green. The film also stars Janet Leigh, Maureen Stapleton, Jesse Pearson (as Conrad Birdie, the Elvis Presley-inspired teen idol), Paul Lynde, and Ed Sullivan playing himself.

The film\'s story was inspired by Elvis Presley\'s 1958 draft into the U.S. Army, and follows the chaos that erupts when fictional rock star Conrad Birdie is drafted and must give \"one last kiss\" to a lucky fan on live television. Ann-Margret plays Kim McAfee, the small-town Ohio girl chosen for the honor, in a role that made her an instant sensation. Dick Van Dyke plays Albert Peterson, a struggling songwriter, and Bobby Rydell plays Hugo Peabody, Kim\'s jealous boyfriend—a role expanded specifically for Rydell for the film version.
