Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of the pressbook, plus an image of any supplements or heralds (if there are any included with this pressbook), but of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are selling! We WISH we could show you the rest of the pressbook, so you could see the great Al Hirschfeld art of Marilyn, Curtis, and Lemmon, or the set of door panels, or the standees, or the calendar, or all the other cool stuff which probably doesn't exist anymore, but you will have to buy this pressbook if you want to see it! Condition: very good to fine. The pressbook was folded across the center at a slight diagonal. Otherwise, the pressbook is in pretty nice condition! It has never been cut (unusual for pressbooks, which were designed for theater owners to remove newspaper ads). Learn More about condition grades
