An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 9" x 12" [23 x 30 cm]; 32 pages) (Learn More) The Voice on the Wire, the 1917 Stuart Paton silent crime murder mystery serial (about a series of murders where the killer calls to report each murder, and a detective keeps trying to follow the clues, but gets nowhere through most of the serial) starring Ben F. Wilson, Neva Gerber, Francis McDonald, Joseph W. Girard, Nigel De Brulier, and Hoot Gibson (uncredited in his sixth movie, when he was still "Edward Gibson"!). Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Joe Hirt Important Added Info: Note that this movie was produced during a brief time when Universal, to distinguish itself from the other studios, would print two full-color poster pages as the centerfold of the pressbook, along with color covers and some color scattered in the rest of the pressbook! This surely cost a lot more than what other studios were doing, but the posters were very striking in color, and no doubt it gained Universal more bookings. 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 11 images of the pressbooks in this set, but due to a space limitation, only TEN of the 11 images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see the other 1. Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was folded across the middle. Learn More about condition grades
