(Learn More) The Red House, the 1947 Delmer Daves romantic love triangle crime film noir mystery thriller ("You dare not even guess the strange love story of 'The Red House'"; "What I cannot possess I'll destroy!"; "Of this man... and the girl who lived in 'The Red House'... people spoke only in whispers!"; "From the novel 'The Red House' by George Agnew Chamberlain"; about a really weird and creepy movie about a man with a wooden leg and his wife, and their niece, who they have raised since she was a baby; they live on a farm, but they have a mysterious red house that they never go to and keep people away from; the house contains the secret of what happened to their adopted daughter's parents and how she came to be in their care, and you will have to see the movie to learn what the secret is!) starring Edward G. Robinson, Lon McCallister, Judith Anderson, Rory Calhoun, Allene Roberts, Julie London, Ona Munson, and Harry Shannon. Note that this was 6th billed Julie London's first real role (as the adopted daughter) after several extremely minor bit parts, and the producers of the movie wisely had a large sexy image of her placed on the posters because as they say, "sex sells"!

Note that in December 2021, we were consigned a truly remarkable collection of pressbooks (the first 37 were auctioned in our December Major Auction, and the most expensive one sold for $17,500!). In our regular auctions since, we have auctioned hundreds more from this collection. Now we continue to auction more of these pressbooks, which is absolutely the finest collection of pressbooks we have ever been consigned. In this set of auctions, most of the ones we are auctioning are larger pressbooks, mostly 11" x 15" or larger. Some of them were folded at one time, but they were stored unfolded for many years, so we left them unfolded, and unless the new owner requests otherwise, we will send them unfolded, because re-folding them would likely lessen the condition. Many of these are ones we have either never auctioned before or only once auctioned before, sometimes many years ago. These were collected decades ago, which was the only time that many of these could be found, and after these auctions are over it may be years (or decades!) before some of these are offered again. They ARE that rare! Note that pressbooks from the 1930s are almost never found in great condition, and some of them (especially those printed during World War II, including all the MGM ones from that time) are printed on newsprint, and are hard to find in even lesser condition. We have several images from each pressbook. We have given each an overall grade, and ask that you look at our images to get a good sense of the condition of that pressbook, because, since they have many pages, it would take forever to describe their condition in detail. However, EVERY one of these pressbooks is complete and uncut! Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. Note that we solely give an overall grade to these rare pressbooks, and tell you whether it is complete and uncut. However, you can view our multiple images of the covers and the interior pages that should give you a good sense of the pressbook's condition. Learn More about condition grades
