Important Added Info: Note that the newspaper ads within the pressbook had a box that said, "$100 if you prove it can't happen!" Apparently, someone in 20th Century Fox's legal department got worried, because they put a snipe on the cover of the pressbook that said that the ad campaign had been changed to read, "$100 to the first person who can prove it can't happen!" Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Condition: fair to good, WITH CUTS. There is a large ad cut from page 7/8. Learn More about condition grades
