Date Sold 11/24/2020Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage English Exhibitor Magazine (measures 9 3/4" x 12" [25 x 30 cm]; 236 pages) (Learn More) The Cinema, the English trade newspaper catering to the British film industry from 1912 until 1975. It was very similar to The Hollywood Reporter in the U.S., in that it was published daily for many years, but occasionally they would publish special issues, and some of those were really large, and were filled with ads for then current movies. Very few pre-World War II examples of this newspaper exist (likely because of English paper shortages during World War II, and also because they were treated like old newspapers), and even fewer examples of their special issues exist! Important Added Info: Note that this is one of six extremely rare English exhibitor magazines we were consigned that date from between 1916 and 1923. Such magazines are beyond rare! Almost none of them survive at all. All six of the ones we are auctioning (in six separate auctions) are in MUCH lesser condition, but they do contain wonderful ads that can't be found anywhere else, and of course, the new owner could separate out those ads from the magazine (and possibly sell them individually). Note that we have provided a picture of the front cover of the magazine, and also pictures of one or more interior two-page spreads (but we didn't make much effort to find the best ones!). These images should greatly help you judge the overall condition of the magazine. Please realize that sometimes there were only a few ads in each magazine, and sometimes quite a few, but that often the bulk of each magazine is taken up by stories about current productions and other information of interest to theater owners (and I don't know that this information can be found anywhere else or that it has been reproduced in any book since its first publication!). Please know that these magazines are sealed in bags and are ready for shipping, and we cannot answer any questions about them or look through them for you, so please bid (or do not bid) based on the images we have provided. Note: We have 16 images of the magazines in this set, but due to a space limitation, only TEN of the 16 images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see the other 6. Condition: fair. Pages 29 to 32 are missing and the covers are mostly separated at the spine, and there are many stains on the covers and some stains on some interior pages. However, some of the pages are in nice condition (see our many images). Please do not bid on this magazine unless you can accept its significant condition issues. Learn More about condition grades
