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 cover of the pressbook is almost completely separated along the spine and there is some tattering along the spine of the pressbook. There are a few stains on the front and back covers of the pressbook (mostly around the edges). Learn More about condition grades
