(Learn More) Chain Lightning, the 1950 Stuart Heisler post-World War II (WWII) military test pilot airplane aviation thriller ("There's a new Bogart thrill in the sky!"; " - with that special brand of Bogart romance"; "The screen's biggest bolt of Bogart -- from Warner Bros."; "It Hits With Thunderbolt Force!"; "What an action role! He's a test pilot for jet planes!"; "Suggested by a Story by J. Redmond Prior") starring Humphrey Bogart, Eleanor Parker, Raymond Massey, Richard Whorf, James Brown, and Morris Ankrum. Note that the producers of this movie used an unusual tagline, "with that special brand of Bogart romance", which is certainly not how you would think of Bogart nowadays, but I guess in 1950 it made sense to advertise him that way!

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 English pressbook contains the original herald that was included with it, and it is pictured next to the pressbook below. 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 English 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: fair to good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was folded across the middle. There are tears, small paper loss, and some stains around the edges.
