Important Added Info: Note that this pressbook is completely uncut! It is very unusual to find uncut pressbooks, as they were intended to be cut up by theater owners! 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. This pressbook comes with two rare supplements (one has a page cut out and pen writing in it) that are complete and uncut! Condition: good to very good. spine of cover is completely separated; folded in half at one time; blue pen marks in one of the pages of the pressbook; minor separation at the right end of the foldline in the cover; minor creases, smudges, and scuffs throughout the pressbook (mostly around the edges and along the foldline); Note that there are no cuts in the pressbook but the 2nd supplement page may be missing.
