Does this DVD contain a booklet? How about in the boxed sets?

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how I want to buy the 10 A/R DVD's. I'm assuming that when you buy them individually, they come with collectible booklets (like most DVD's do). Am I right about that?

But the new Ultimate Collection has the films in slimcases (thinpacks) and I've heard that slimcases don't usually include booklets.

So you miss out on all 10 booklets if you buy the Ultimate Collection???

So I might go instead with the two 5-disc sets instead, each of which seem to have the normal-width cases (and presumably the booklets). But then I miss out on "Partners in Rhythm" and the press kits and posters from the Ultimate Collection. It sucks that I have to choose between those and the booklets.

Does anyone here have the individual single DVD release of this film and can tell me whether it comes with a booklet?

Or do you have this DVD as part of the 5-disc boxed set, or the Ultimate Collection? And if so, did that include a booklet for this film?

Thanks a lot for any info!

I bought "Astaire and Rogers: The Complete Film Collection" from Amazon. In addition to the 10 movies the set included a packet of 5x7 stills from various movies (some are production shots), replicas of the original promotional programs for "Roberta" and "Shall We Dance" and a mail offer for 4 posters.

"Partners in Rhythm" (DVD and Cd soundtrack) are included, but no booklet. I'm sorry.

Yes, you miss out on the individual booklets for each movie in this collection.

Since I really just wanted good copies of the movies I'm satisfied and the extras are a bonus for me but I'm sorry it won't have all that you would like.
