Important Added Info: Note that for a short time in the early 1920s, Universal had a different format to their pressbooks. They printed most of them on a high quality paper and they had an attached "publicity clip section" in the back, which was printed on pulp paper, and which contained newspaper stories. They soon abandoned this, likely because it was much more expensive than printing the pressbooks in the regular way. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), 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: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It has staining around the edges of the cover and the "publicity clip section" in the back has separated. But otherwise, it is in pretty good condition! Learn More about condition grades
