Now a movie"; "In the Valley of the Dolls, it's instant turn-on... dolls to put you to sleep at night, kick you awake in the morning, make life seem great-instant love, instant excitement... ultimate hell!"; "The motion picture that shows what America's all time #1 best seller first put into words!"; "The nation's most startling and hotly discussed best-seller now on the screen with every shock and sensation intact!"; "NEELY O'HARA: ... who was such a nice kid - until they put her name in lights.

She took the red pills."; "HELEN... who was a gut, fingernail and claw fighter - and went down swinging. She took the yellow pills."; "JENNIFER NORTH: ... International sex symbol - victimized by everyone. She took the blue pills. Sex symbol turned on too often!"; "Based on a Book by Jacqueline Susann"; "Screenplay by Helen Deutsch and Dorothy Kingsley") starring Barbara Parkins, Patty Duke, Paul Burke, Sharon Tate (in her fourth credited movie role), Tony Scotti, Lee Grant, Joey Bishop, George Jessel (Collectively billed as "Guest Stars Joey Bishop and George Jessel"), and Susan Hayward ("as Helen Lawson"). Note that the music for this movie was composed by John Williams (apparently his first real time doing so for a movie), and on the soundtrack CD he is billed as "Johnny Williams"! Note that "everybody" knew that the book was partially loosely based on the life of Judy Garland and other Hollywood stars, but to protect themselves, the producers added a note to the posters that read "The Producers wish to state that any similarity between any person, living or dead, and the characters portrayed in this film, is purely coincidental and not intended." NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that there were two different pressbooks printed for the release of this movie. At this time, distributors would print a different pressbook with a lesser number of pages (usually 4 pages and printed in black & white) for smaller theaters, while the larger theaters would get a pressbook (sometimes in color) with many more pages. This pressbook is the 13-page pressbook used in larger theaters (we are also currently auctioning the smaller pressbook with 4 pages in a separate auction). Also 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 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, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. There are a few faint smudges on the front cover. Learn More about condition grades
