Important Added Info: Note that first release 1929 movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned any movie paper from this movie until we received this pressbook! 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. The pressbook is incredibly fragile, and it has tears and paper loss around the edges and along the folds. It must be handled super carefully. However, virtually no movie paper exists from this early Boris Karloff movie, and he is pictured on the front cover, and while one would prefer to find this pressbook in better condition, one would likely never see another example ever!
