Merian C. Cooper had accused RKO of not paying him all the money contractually due for six RKO films he produced in the 1930s. In 1946, a settlement was reached, giving Cooper complete ownership of the RKO titles: Rafter Romance (1933) with Ginger Rogers, Double Harness (1933) with Ann Harding and William Powell, The Right to Romance (1933) with Ann Harding and Robert Young, One Man's Journey (1933) with Lionel Barrymore, Living on Love (1937) and A Man to Remember (1938).

TCM, in association with the Library of Congress and the Brigham Young University Motion Picture Archive, had searched many film archives throughout the world to find copies of the films in order to create new 35mm prints.
