The monster is loose!"; "Based upon the Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley Story"; "Adapted by John L. Balderston from the play by Peggy Webling"; the first of the Universal "Frankenstein" movies, and regarded as one of the finer movies of any genre, in large part due to the marvelous acting of Boris Karloff, and the marvelous direction of James Whale!) starring Colin Clive (as Dr. Herbert V. Frankenstein), Boris Karloff (as the Frankenstein monster), Edward Van Sloan, Fredric Kerr, Mae Clarke, Dwight Frye (extremely memorable as Fritz), and John Boles NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that what is being auctioned is 4 pages from the original 1931 pressbook (we confirmed that this is surely correct by conferring with a collector who has the complete pressbook). It is INCOMPLETE and only contains pages 3, 4, 13, and 14 of the original 16-page pressbook. But the 4 pages that are here have really wonderful images and text, and while they obviously will not sell for the thousands of dollars that the complete pressbook would sell for, they certainly are of real value to any horror collector, and likely is the only chance for many of those collectors to own an original 1931 Frankenstein item! Condition: fair, NO CUTS. The pressbook is INCOMPLETE and only contains pages 3, 4, 13, and 14 of the original 16-page pressbook. The pages that are present were folded across the middle, and there is small separation at each end of that fold, with tiny separation at the spine. There are some pink and brown stains scattered throughout the back page, more so in the upper half. There are faint scuffs and creases scattered throughout the pressbook.
