An Original Vintage Theatrical Promotional Movie Brochure (measures 9 1/2" x 12" [24 x 30 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) MGM's Knockout 9 ("Pictures with a punch"), the 1944 MGM promo brochure sent to movie theaters to try to get them to book their latest nine movies. Someone had the idea to use as an advertising gimmick images of famous heavyweight boxing champions on the cover, and then compare those "famous knockout champs" to the nine upcoming MGM movies, calling them "Pictures with a punch". The movies referenced are mostly brand new movies, but Waterloo Bridge is included, which was a 1940 movie that was being re-released. The other movies referenced are Seventh Cross, Barbary Coast Gent, Maisie Goes to Reno, Marriage is a Private Affair, Kismet, Mrs. Parkington, Naughty Marietta, and Lost in a Harem, and there are illustrated ads for each of those. It is possible that this was originally part of a magazine, because the pages are stapled together near the left edge, but it is also possible it was created as a standalone promo brochure (we have never seen it before). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
