Auction History Result 7h1331 WOLF SONG pressbook 1929 Gary Cooper & Lupe Velez in a Paramount singing romance, rare! Date Sold 1/24/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 10 3/4" x 16 1/2" [27 x 42 cm]; 12 pages) (Learn More) Wolf Song, the 1929 Victor Fleming romantic cowboy western (Cooper is a fur trapper who has great success with women, but then he falls hard for beautiful Mexican Lupe Velez, and her father disapproves, and he goes off with her, abandoning her for a while to be with his fur trapper pals, but then he returns in the nick of time to rescue her from an Indian leader!) starring Gary Cooper, Lupe Velez, Louis Wolheim, Constantine Romanoff, and Michael Vavitch. Note that Cooper was notorious for having affairs with almost all of his female co-stars in his early movies, and he had a particularly notorious affair with Velez during the making of this movie! An odd bit of trivia is that the movie contained a very brief full-frontal nude shot of Gary Cooper that was quite controversial at the time! Also note that this movie was silent, but by the time it was released, "talking" movies were all the craze, so three songs were added to the movie (two sung by Velez, and one sung by Russ Columbo), so that Paramount could advertise the movie as being "sound".

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 received 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: fair, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was removed from a bound volume. The pages are very fragile, with tears around the edges and paper loss in the bottom left of the back cover, which affects one of the three-sheet images. Learn More about condition grades
