Important Added Info: 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. 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 purchased 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, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. There are many smudges and stains on both covers, and the covers were also separated at the spine, and someone put clear tape down the spine. There was a tear in the middle of the right of the cover, extending into the right of Davis' forehead and someone put clear tape on the back of that tear. There is paper loss in the bottom of the left border of the back cover, but it does not affect the poster images. Someone went through each of the interior pages of the pressbook and stamped a small "VOID" stamp on the pages, but not on the poster pages and not on the covers. Learn More about condition grades
