Important Added Info: Note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a film being released. Often, changes would be made in a film advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several.

Condition: very good. It was folded in half. There is creasing in the covers and edges of the interior pages.. NOTE: This pressbook is complete and uncut (which is unusual for pressbooks). All of the pressbooks we sell are complete and uncut unless otherwise indicated!
