NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this pressbook comes with a certificate of authenticity ("A Genuine Treasure of the Ackermuseum, Horrorwood, Karloffornia") personally signed by "The Ackermonster" (Forrest J. Ackerman). Note that only a limited number of these color certificates were made (for a sale of FJA movie paper by Bruce Hershenson), and also note that legendary horror/sci-fi fan Mr. Ackerman (publisher of "Famous Monsters of Filmland") has recently passed away. Also note that when studios would prepare pressbooks they would often include a sample of the herald. Most often, the herald is no longer still with the pressbook. Sometimes, the herald by itself will sell for almost as much as the rest of the entire pressbook! This pressbook contains the original herald that was included with it, and it is pictured next to the pressbook below. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of the pressbook, plus an image of any supplements or heralds (if there are any included with this pressbook), but of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are selling (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also 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: good to very good, NO CUTS. The herald inside the pressbook has slightly darkened the first couple interior pages. Learn More about condition grades
