Auction History Result 6b080 UNIVERSAL 1932-33 campaign book 1932 best ads for The Mummy as Cagliostro, Invisible Man! Date Sold 5/1/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Campaign Book (measures 10 1/4" x 13 1/4" [26 x 34 cm]; 44 pages) (Learn More) Step Out With Universal, the 1932-33 Universal campaign book ("The box office book 1932-33") featuring upcoming Universal movies and stars from movies that were planned for production or release by Universal in the coming year including: The Invisible Man, S.S. San Pedro, Laughter in Hell, Once in a Lifetime, and many more. This campaign book contains colorful artwork (mostly 1 and 2-page spreads) as well as information on writers, directors, and Universal staff. This book has some of the finest full-color artwork of any campaign book, and we wish we could reproduce all of the ads, because they are just so incredible! Also note that, as was often the case with these campaign books, some of the movies advertised were either never made, had their titles changed before they were released, or were made with different casts than those announced in the campaign book! Note that in the case of this particular campaign book, there is a really cool ad for "Cagliostro", which turned into "The Mummy", and it also has ads for two other Universal horror movies "The Old Dark House" and "The Invisible Man" (and on The Invisible Man it says that he will be played by "that master of the impossible - BORIS KARLOFF", when of course, Claude Rains actually played the role!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this campaign book is missing 12 pages. It contains 44 pages, and it should contain 56. There are three 2-page spreads where one of the pages is missing (we have photographed those so you can see). One of these that is missing a page is the "Invisible Man" ad, so only half of that ad is present. The entire great ad for "The Mummy" (which says "Cagliostro", the working title) is present. The ad for "The Old Dark House" is missing. Please bear in mind this book is missing the 12 pages described above. Condition: fair. 44 pages, including the covers, are present, but 12 pages are missing (see above). Please bear in mind this major defect before placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
