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 George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead (released in some English speaking countries as "Zombies: Dawn of the Dead"), the 1978 George A. Romero (a sequel to "Night of the Living Dead"; Dario Argento can be considered a producer of this film because he helped raise money to make the film, though he is billed as the "script consultant") Italian/U.S. undead zombie horror thriller ("When there's no more room in HELL the dead will walk the EARTH"; "First there was 'Night of the Living Dead' Now George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead"; "There is no explicit sex in this picture. However, there are scenes of violence which may be considered shocking. No one under 17 admitted"; "Written and Directed by George A, Romero") starring David Emge, Ken Foree, Scott H. Reiniger, Gaylen Ross, David Crawford, David Early, and Richard France, and music by The Goblins with Dario Argento

Here is an image of the pressbook's covers and the 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!).
