Artist: Glenn Cravath Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this pressbook, and it sold for $1,800, but that one had a herald. 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)! 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! Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It has a 1" x 3" piece of brown paper tape on the center of the bottom of the back cover, but it was not put there for a restoration purpose. It has 7" of separation at the bottom of the spine and two creases near the spine on the front cover, with some smudges around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
