An Original Vintage Theatrical English Movie Pressbook (English pb; measures 9 1/2" x 11 3/4" [24 x 30 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) The Playboy of Paris, the 1930 Ludwig Berger romantic comedy ("When he loves he L-O-V-E-S!"; "When I kiss, I K-I-S-S!") starring Maurice Chevalier, Frances Dee, O.P. Heggie (best remembered as the blind man who befriends the monster in "The Bride of Frankenstein", and also as the next door cellmate to Robert Donat in "The Count of Monte Cristo"), Stuart Erwin, and Eugene Pallette. This was an English language version of "Le Petit Cafe", also made by Paramount in 1930. Universal did the same thing with "Dracula" in 1931. They filmed the movie twice, once in English, and once in French, with two entirely different casts, U.S. actors for the English version and mostly French actors for the French version, obviously for release in French-speaking countries, and the same was done with this movie, except it was made by Paramount only in English and French language versions (the French language version also starred Maurice Chevalier). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this English 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 English 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. There are creases, smudges, and scuffs scattered on the covers, but the pressbook is otherwise in pretty good condition! Learn More about condition grades
