Auction History Result 9c423 SILENCERS pressbook '66 outrageous sexy phallic imagery of Dean Martin & the Slaygirls! Date Sold 7/6/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 17" [28 x 43 cm]; 14 pages) (Learn More) The Silencers, the 1966 Phil Karlson spy espionage action comedy spoof ("Matt Helm shoots the works!"; "The Slaygirls will slay you!"; "They've got what it takes to 'get' Matt Helm"; "Based on novels by Donald Hamilton") starring Dean Martin ("as Matt Helm"), Stella Stevens, Daliah Lavi, Victor Buono, Arthur O'Connell, Robert Webber, James Gregory, Roger C. Carmel, Beverly Adams ("as Lovey Kravezit"), Cyd Charisse, and "featuring The Slaygirls" Mary Mangler, Margie Nelson, Marilyn Tindall, Jan Watson, Barbara Burgess, and Margaret Teele. Note that this is the first film to feature a post-credits scene! Also, note that this movie was produced by Irving Allen. Allen and Cubby Broccoli had produced a long string of movies together, but then they split apart when Broccoli proposed that they produce the James Bond series of movies, which Allen did not want to produce, because he did not think that they were even good enough for television! A few years later, Allen tried to make up for his massive blunder by producing this series of Matt Helm movies starring Dean Martin, but the only way he could get Martin to star in this first one was to make him a partner, which meant that Martin made more money from The Silencers in 1966 than Sean Connery made on Thunderball the previous year, and Connery was not happy about that at all!

Artist: Brian Bysouth Important Added Info: 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!
