NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Important Added Info: The pressbook is printed on a large 21" x 28" sheet that was then folded twice, to create a "cover" and a back cover, with an interior two-page spread, and then it opens to a 21" x 28" inside spread! 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: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is uncut and complete. The pressbook was folded in half at one time. There is pencil writing in the top left blank corner of the cover. There is some slight darkening and faint smudges on the covers and tiny pinholes in the corners.
