As many of you know, I, Bruce Hershenson, owner of eMoviePoster.com, have collected pressbooks (and related movie paper like studio yearbooks) for over 30 years, and I have the world's foremost collection of such material. I thought I would share one item with you this week, the type of items you almost surely have never seen before, and which might not come up for sale for DECADES!

This week, I have the pressbook from Streamline Express, the 1935 Leonard Fields crime mystery railroad train stage acting romantic comedy (made by Mascot Pictures a year after the extremely successful Twentieth Century, and it "borrows" the entire basic plot of a Broadway producer riding a transcontinental train his beautiful star is on, to try to win her back, and the producers added in unusual passengers to try to suggest a "Grand Hotel" on train tracks!) starring Victor Jory, Evelyn Venable, Esther Ralston, Erin O'Brien-Moore, and Ralph Forbes. Note that, for unknown reasons, first release movie paper from this is beyond rare. In all our years of auctioning, we only sold a single lobby card, in 2014!

Here are images of the front, back, and interior pages:

Each month I will showcase a different pressbook (or related item) from my collection (so in just 25,000 weeks or so, I will have shared the entire collection with you!).
