Little Lord Fauntleroy, the 1936 John Cromwell England royalty family relationship melodrama ("From the world famous story by Frances Hodgson Burnett"; produced by David O. Selznick; about a young American boy who finds out he is the heir to an English title, and he is sent with his crusty old grandfather, but over time, they develop a loving relationship) starring Freddie Bartholomew (in the title role as Little Lord Fauntleroy; billed as "Star of 'David Copperfield'"), Dolores Costello (billed as "Dolores Costello Barrymore"), C. Aubrey Smith, Mickey Rooney, Guy Kibbee, Henry Stephenson, Jackie Searl, and Una O'Connor. Note that there were a number of movie adaptations based on this famous novel, and the best remembered one other than this version was the 1921 version where Mary Pickford played the title character, even though he was a boy!

Important Added Info: Note that when studios would prepare pressbooks they would often include a sample of the herald. Most often, the herald is no longer still with the pressbook. Sometimes, the herald by itself will sell for almost as much as the rest of the entire pressbook! This pressbook contains the original herald which is pictured next to the pressbook below. Also note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several. Almost every Academy Award winning movie would have a special "Academy Award winner" supplement. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook, 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 this pressbook, 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.
