Douglas in 'The Robe'"; "Written by Philip Dunne") starring Victor Mature (in the title role as Demetrius), Susan Hayward, Michael Rennie, Debra Paget, Anne Bancroft, Jay Robinson (as Caligula), Barry Jones, William Marshall, Richard Egan, Ernest Borgnine, Charles Evans, and Mickey Simpson. Note that the year before this movie was released, Richard Burton starred in "The Robe", also based on Lloyd C. Douglas' book, and it proved very successful, and this movie was released the following year, with Victor Mature, Michael Rennie, and Jay Robinson reprising their roles from The Robe, but otherwise with different actors. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: 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 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 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: very good to fine, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. This very large pressbook (which measures 14" x 18") was folded down the middle. Learn More about condition grades
