Young America's idol - a good looking stranger in search of sensation - and a girl in love. These are the people around whom Alfred Hitchcock spins his wonderful new web of suspense and surprise. Warner Bros. bring you a pounding new tempo to motion picture entertainment."; "It starts with the shriek of a train whistle... and ends with shrieking excitement!"; "Warner Bros. Now bring a pounding new temp to screen entertainment!"; "Screen Play by Raymond Chandler and Czenzi Ormonde"; based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith; about a man who meets a somewhat unbalanced man on a train, and they fantasize about how each has a person that makes their life miserable, and the unbalanced man says that they could each kill the other's problem, and would never get caught!) starring Farley Granger, Ruth Roman, Robert Walker, Leo G. Carroll, Patricia Hitchcock, Kasey Rogers, and Marion Lorne

Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a collection of seventeen Alfred Hitchcock pressbooks we were consigned which we are currently auctioning in seventeen separate auctions. This is a rare opportunity to purchase any or all of these pressbooks, many of which are rarely offered for sale!

Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this pressbook, and only one in the last 13 years (that last example sold for $191)!

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: very good to fine, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut.
