Ernest Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls, the 1943 Sam Wood romantic Spanish Civil War adventure melodrama ("From the celebrated novel by Ernest Hemingway"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Gary Cooper (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; as Robert Jordan), Ingrid Bergman (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; "as Maria"), Akim Tamiroff (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; "as Pablo"), Arturo de Cordova, Joseph Calleia, Katina Paxinou (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film; "as Pilar"), Vladimir Sokoloff, and Mikhail Rasumny
NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Important Added Info: Note that this is a REALLY elaborate pressbook that is spiral-bound and measures 15 1/4" x 20". It has a full-color embossed cover! Being both over-sized and spiral-bound likely contributes to how incredibly rare it is to find this pressbook, and even more rare to find it undamaged! We have only previously auctioned three examples in all our years of auctioning!

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 received 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!

Note: We have 17 images of this pressbook, but due to a space limitation, only TEN of the 17 images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see the other 7.

Condition: fair, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. There is light water staining in the bottom of all pages but they are not stuck together. It has discolored most of the pages in that area. There are also some tears and stains around the edges of the covers with some tiny paper loss and the pressbook was lightly folded in half at one time down the middle. Obviously one would prefer to find a better condition example of this pressbook but we don't know that another example exists.
