Muscle Beach Party, the 1964 William Asher AIP teen beach surfing romantic comedy ("When 10,000 biceps go around 5,000 bikinis... You KNOW what's gonna happen!"; "Remember what happened on those 'Beach Party Blankets'? Well here we go again with Biceps... Bikinis... Surf and... Sun... Music... Lovin' and beach time fun!") starring Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, Luciana Paluzzi, John Ashley, Don Rickles, Jody McCrea, Candy Johnson, Morey Amsterdam, Stevie Wonder (billed as "Introducing Little Stevie Wonder"; in his first movie role at 14 years old!), Buddy Hackett ("as the Rich Business Manager"), Peter Lupus (billed as "Rock Stevens"), and "Featuring Dick Dale and the Del Tones". Note that Peter Lupus was a bodybuilder who got his start in beach and sword & sandal movies, where he was billed as "Rock Stevens", but in 1966, he got a great break when he was cast as Willy in TV's "Mission: Impossible"!

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!

Condition: very good, NO CUTS.
