eMoviePoster.comCool Item Of the Week: G-Men pressbook coversReturn to Cool Item of the Week Archive Added: 09/26/2011 As many of you know, I, Bruce Hershenson, owner of eMoviePoster.com, have collected pressbooks (and related movie paper like studio yearbooks) for over 30 years, and I have the world's foremost collection of such material. I thought I would share one item with you each week, the type of items you almost surely have never seen before, and which might not come up for sale for DECADES! This week, I have the pressbook covers from "G-Men (G Men)", the 1935 William Keighley gangster crime melodrama (for the first time, Cagney played "a good guy", a young man who wants to become a "G-Man", or government man, and Warner's wanted to downplay that in its advertising, so they had advertising that was ambiguous as to which side of the law Cagney was on, except on the 24 sheet where they made it clear he had switched sides!!) starring James Cagney, Margaret Lindsay, Ann Dvorak, Lloyd Nolan, Robert Armstrong (best remembered as Carl Denham in "King Kong"), and Barton MacLane Here is an image of the front cover, an inside spread, and the back "poster page" (see larger
images by clicking on these thumbnails). Each week I will showcase a different pressbook (or related item) from my collection (so in just 25,000 weeks or so, I will have shared the entire collection with you!).
