Walt Disney brings new excitement to romance!"; "Starring a fiery new romantic team"; "starring a new romantic team"; "Emotional impact"; "Fiery new romantic team"; "Tumultuous action"; "Brawling, boisterous monarch"; "Pomp and pageantry"; "Memorable characters"; "from the famed Adventure Novel When Knighthood Was in Flower"; "An all live action picture") starring Richard Todd (as Charles Brandon), Glynis Johns (as Princess Mary Tudor), James Robertson Justice (as King Henry VIII), Michael Gough, Jane Barrett, Peter Copley, and D.A. Clarke-Smith (as Cardinal Wolsey). Note that this was based on the book When Knighthood was in Flower, and it seemed like an odd choice for a Walt Disney movie, given that the only previous two movie versions were in 1908 and 1922. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: 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! Condition: very good to fine, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It is folded across the middle and has minor wear on the covers, but otherwise, it is in pretty nice condition!
