Important Added Info: Note that when studios would prepare pressbooks they would often include a sample of the herald. Most often, the herald is no longer still with the pressbook. Sometimes, the herald by itself will sell for almost as much as the rest of the entire pressbook! This pressbook contains the original herald, as well as two very rare pressbook supplements, which is pictured next to the pressbook below. Note that the herald is not pictured, but that it is full-color and in perfect condition. 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. Almost every Academy Award winning film would have a special "Academy Award winner" supplement. Condition: very good to fine. The covers have separated from the spine. There are faint minor creases in the edges of the pressbook.. 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! Learn More about condition grades
