An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 15" [28 x 38 cm]; 12 pages) (Learn More) Gorilla at Large, the 1954 Harmon Jones 3-D (3D; 3-Dimension) murder mystery crime circus carnival horror thriller ("The hate-beast who lives to kill is loose!"; "Leonard Goldstein presents Gorilla at Large"; "Get out of his way... before it's too late as he unleashes a terror never known by mortal man before!"; "Written by Leonard Praskins and Barney Slater") starring Cameron Mitchell, Anne Bancroft (in her fifth movie role!), Lee J. Cobb, Raymond Burr, Charlotte Austin, Peter Whitney, Lee Marvin, Warren Stevens, John G. Kellogg, and George Barrows (uncredited as Goliath the Gorilla!). Note that George Barrows had a handful of roles playing gorillas in movies, and he even played the lead character in "Robot Monster". He seems to have become Hollywood's leading "gorilla performer" once the top ones of the 1930s and 1940s (Ray 'Crash' Corrigan, Charles Gemora, Emil Van Horn, and Jack Leonard) quit playing gorillas! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this movie was originally in 3-D. The studios created both 3D and 2D posters and lobby cards (the 2-D posters and lobby cards were for theaters that lacked the 3-D equipment). This item is from the "3-D" release. 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)! Finally, 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. Learn More about condition grades
