Russo end-of-the-world science fiction (sci-fi) walking-dead undead zombie horror thriller ("They won't stay dead!"; "They keep coming back in a bloodthirsty lust for human flesh!... Pits the dead against the living in a struggle for survival!") starring Judith O'Dea, Duane Jones, Marilyn Eastman, Karl Hardman, Judith Ridley, Kyra Schon, Charles Craig, Keith Wayne, Randy Burr, S. William Hinzman (billed as "Bill Heinzman"; as the graveyard zombie), and George A. Romero (the director, as one of the Washington reporters!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have sold several examples of this pressbook in the past, but we have never seen one with a herald! This pressbook comes with a herald that measures 8 1/2" x 11", with a cool newspaper ad with the cool tagline that reads "If 'Night of the Living Dead' frightens you to death - you are covered for ...... $50,000", and below that it reads "A $50,000 POLICY covering death from heart attack for anyone in the audience during a performance of 'NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD' for this special engagement only has been obtained through a leading International Insurance Company in London.". 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. 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!
UPDATED 02/14/2014: Note that we have updated the auction with an image of the "$50,000 Insurance Policy" herald that is mentioned in the Important Added Information. Condition: very good to fine, NO CUTS. Learn More about condition grades ![]()
