Date Sold 6/19/2011Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 17"; 8 pages) (Learn More) Night Unto Night, the 1949 Don Siegel romantic epileptic biochemist melodrama ("The night hid their love... But it couldn't hide their secret!"; "Day after day you'll keep remembering it's heart-gripping story of a great devotion!"; "There is nothing you can't tell the woman you love"; "Their love-making is making history!"; "From the novel by Philip Wylie") starring Ronald Reagan, Viveca Lindfors, Broderick Crawford, Rosemary DeCamp, Osa Massen, Craig Stevens, and Art Baker. Note that this movie started filming in 1947, after Don Siegel completed "The Verdict" in 1946. But for reasons we could not find anywhere, the movie was not released until 1949. In the past, we had sold stills with a 1947 copyright date, and we thought that those were the only items prepared in 1947, but in 2016, we were also consigned a great full-color window card that was printed in 1947 (it has a 1947 copyright and NSS number, and it also says "in her wonderful American debut" under Lindfors' credit). When the movie was finally released in 1949, the same art was used on the window card, but now it was only 2-color (and Lindfors' credit was removed, since it was no longer true, and the racy tagline "Their love-making is making history!" was also removed), and the same is true of all the other first release posters! If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. 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: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook was removed from a bound volume, and there are tiny tears and tiny areas of paper loss down the left border. Otherwise, the pressbook is in pretty good condition! Learn More about condition grades
