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: good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. The pressbook was removed from a bound volume and there are tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss down the spine, and the covers are now separated from the rest of the pressbook.
