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 each week, the type of items you almost surely have never seen before, and which might not come up for sale for DECADES!

So below is the pressbook from Mama Steps Out, the 1937 George B. Seitz romantic comedy ("Anita Loos' Gay Screen Romance!"; "Anita Loos' hilarious successor to 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes'!"; "Based on the John Kirkpatrick play 'Ada Beats The Drum.' - Produced on the stage by John Golden, Inc."; It's gay, giddy and romantic!"; "Alice Brady and Guy Kibbee a screaming team!"; "Anita Loos' Hilarious Successor to 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes!'"; "The Season's Gayest Screen Romance!") starring Guy Kibbee, Alice Brady, Betty Furness, Dennis Morgan (billed as "Stanley Morner"), and Gene Lockheart

Here is an image of the pressbook's covers and an interior spread:

 
  

Each week I will showcase a different pressbook (or related item) from my collection (so in just 20,000 weeks or so, I will have shared the entire collection with you!). And remember to check out our previous Cool Items of the Week in our Cool Item of the Week archive (which is fully searchable!).
