The velvet traps of Hollywood... The Malibu parties... Grabbing for the brass ring... The winning ticket..."; "The cycles... the surf... and the swingers that make it all go!"; "They had names like THUMPER... and CHOO CHOO... and MR. CLEAN... and BIG JANE. They were the freaks... The wipe-outs... The beach bums."; "Her name is Vickie. She was the little girl in a woman's body. And all she looked for... just once... was The Sweet Ride"; "Offer her a smoke-and Big Jane's your girl."; "Hear those bikes? Somebody musta opened the zoo."; "I don't own my own life and neither do you."; "I got a bullet hole two inches below my heart from a nice kid."; "Stomp him and we got the heat all over us like a hot sauce."; "We were blowing our minds on all kinds of stuff."; "When life swings - it's The Sweet Ride"; "Based on the novel by William Murray") starring Tony Franciosa (as Collie), Michael Sarrazin (as Denny), Jacqueline Bisset (billed as "introducing Jacqueline Bisset"; as Vickie), Michele Carey (as Thumper), The Psychedelights, Bob Denver ("as 'Choo Choo'"), and Corinna Tsopei. Note that despite the tagline, Bisset had been in several movies before this one.

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of the pressbook, plus an image of a two-page spread from inside of the pressbook (we do NOT picture any supplements or heralds, if there are any included with this pressbook), and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut!

Condition: very good to fine, NO CUTS. The pressbook is in nice condition!
