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! Because this pressbook is folded, it will be sent in a standard flat package for our flat rate shipping cost. Condition: very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook was lightly folded across the middle at one time and there is slight darkening along that fold on the back poster page (it does not affect any of the poster images except for the very bottom edge of the six-sheet). Otherwise, the pressbook is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
