Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), 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: poor to fair, NO CUTS. There is water staining down the left 3-4" of the pressbook, which has also caused that area to ripple on all pages. There is also surface paper loss and staining in the lower right of the back cover, which affects the window card image and a tiny bit of the six-sheet image. Learn More about condition grades
