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 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! Condition: good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was folded across the middle. There are yellowed pieces of tape on the spine repairing separation, and there are stains, paper loss, and deterioration in the lower right of the front cover, with some lighter staining in the upper left of the front cover. See our images to get a good sense of the condition of this item. Learn More about condition grades
