Date Sold 9/17/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 17" [28 x 43 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) Philo Vance's Secret Mission, the 1947 Reginald Le Borg detective murder mystery crime thriller ("He means business... And his business is... MURDER!"; "Secret murder...Sinister mission!"; "He's occupied with murder... but pre-occupied with romance!") starring Alan Curtis (in the title role as Philo Vance), Sheila Ryan, Tala Birell, Frank Jenks, Frank Fenton, and James Bell. Note that William Powell first played Philo Vance in 1929's "The Canary Murder Case" and after the character proved very popular, he followed it the next year with "The Greene Murder Case", after which Basil Rathbone took over the role that same year in "The Bishop Murder Case". After Powell played Vance again in "The Benson Murder Case" (which was also made in a Spanish language version with an entirely different case), he then played him one more time in "The Kennel Murder Case" in 1933, but the character also appeared in ten more movies between 1934 and 1947, with other actors in the lead roles.

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), 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, and it was never folded. It was in a bound volume at one time and there is a series of tiny holes and tiny paper loss down the spine. Otherwise, the pressbook is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
