Harlow, the 1965 Gordon Douglas Hollywood California sex symbol biography melodrama ("What was Harlow really like?; She was the glittering, glamorous movie queen who put Hollywood on the map!"; "She was the Platinum Blonde who became the most desired woman in the world!"; "She was the darling of first-night parties and third rate hotels!"; "She was famous for tight dresses, loose living, and quick trips to the bottom between pictures!"; "She couldn't taste life - she had to devour it!"; "She was the star who didn't know when to stop!"; "Harlow stood for only one thing - as no woman ever has - before or since!"; about Jean Harlow, the famous Hollywood movie star and sex symbol of the 1930s who died at the peak of her career in 1937) starring Carroll Baker (in the title role as Harlow), Martin Balsam ("as Harlow's Producer. He decides what pictures and what stars are going to be made - and who's making them!"), Red Buttons ("as Harlow's Agent. What did Harlow tell him that no person should ever hear?"), Michael Connors ("as Harlow's Co-star. He's made love to as many women off screen as on - and he's never given a bad performance"), Angela Lansbury ("as Harlow's Mother. She smothered Harlow with mother's love, a woman's jealousy - and a rival's hate!"), Peter Lawford ("as Harlow's Husband. What really happened on history's most notorious wedding night?"), Raf Vallone ("as Harlow's Stepfather. When he married Mama Jean, was it for herself - or for her daughter?"), and Leslie Nielsen. Bizarrely, this was one of two movies entitled Harlow released in 1965, both biographies of Jean Harlow. The other version starred Carol Lynley in the lead role.

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 which is pictured next to the pressbook below. Also note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie 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 movie would have a special "Academy Award winner" supplement. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of 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 is complete and uncut. There is a diagonal crease in the bottom right corner of the front cover and some scuffs on both covers.
