Important Added Info: NOTE THAT THIS PRESSBOOK SEEMS TO REPRESENT AN INCREDIBLE DISCOVERY! It is only 8 pages, but it seems to be a regular pressbook in every way, but it only mentions posters in a tiny section on the back cover and does not picture any. Yet there are newspaper stories inside acting as though the movie is just about to open. We only see two possible explanations! One is that this 8 page pressbook was only made for small theaters, and that the regular 16 page pressbook was for larger theaters. But if that is true, why is this pressbook so rare (we have never auctioned it before)? The other possibility would be that Paramount didn't know it would be a big hit and started with this 8 page pressbook, and then after it was so successful, they created the 16 page pressbook! These are just guesses on our part. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that in December 2021, we were consigned a truly remarkable collection of pressbooks (the first 37 were auctioned in our December Major Auction, and the most expensive one sold for $17,500!). In our regular auctions since, we have auctioned hundreds more from this collection. Now we continue to auction more of these pressbooks, which is absolutely the finest collection of pressbooks we have ever been consigned. In this set of auctions, most of the ones we are auctioning are larger pressbooks, mostly 11" x 15" or larger. Some of them were folded at one time, but they were stored unfolded for many years, so we left them unfolded, and unless the new owner requests otherwise, we will send them unfolded, because re-folding them would likely lessen the condition. Many of these are ones we have either never auctioned before or only once auctioned before, sometimes many years ago. These were collected decades ago, which was the only time that many of these could be found, and after these auctions are over it may be years (or decades!) before some of these are offered again. They ARE that rare! Note that pressbooks from the 1930s are almost never found in great condition, and some of them (especially those printed during World War II, including all the MGM ones from that time) are printed on newsprint, and are hard to find in even lesser condition. We have several images from each pressbook. We have given each an overall grade, and ask that you look at our images to get a good sense of the condition of that pressbook, because, since they have many pages, it would take forever to describe their condition in detail. However, EVERY one of these pressbooks is complete and uncut! Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. Note that we solely give an overall grade to these rare pressbooks, and tell you whether it is complete and uncut. However, you can view our multiple images of the covers and the interior pages that should give you a good sense of the pressbook's condition. Learn More about condition grades
