Important Added Info: Note that this is a very rare pressbook! We auctioned a cut version 5 years ago, and an uncut version that was in much lesser condition 14 years ago, but otherwise, we have not auctioned it until now. 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 pages), 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 received 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, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. This very large pressbook (which measures 12" x 18") was never folded (which is quite unusual with large pressbooks, because theater owners would almost always fold them so that they could be stored with lobby cards or one-sheets). It has scuffing in the gold area down the left of the cover and small tears in the blank spine that is at the top of the pressbook. Otherwise, it is in nice condition!
