An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 12" x 18" [30 x 46 cm]; 12 pages) (Learn More) Common Clay, the 1930 Victor Fleming romantic family relationship out-of-wedlock-child melodrama ("An all talking Movietone drama"; "Does One Slip Make a Bad Woman?"; "A vivid drama of a great love"; "From the Harvard Prize play by Cleves Kinkead"; about a poor young woman who gets a job as a maid in a rich household, and she has an affair with the son, which leaves her pregnant, and when she tries to get financial help for her child, the family treats her as a blackmailer) starring Constance Bennett, Lew Ayres, Tully Marshall, Matty Kemp, and Beryl Mercer NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Hal Phyfe Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned six lobby cards, a glass slide, and a herald from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this pressbook! Note that in December 2021, we were consigned a truly remarkable collection of pressbooks (the first 37 were auctioned in our December Major Auction, and the most expensive one sold for $17,500!). In our regular auctions since, we have auctioned hundreds more from this collection. Now we continue to auction more of these pressbooks, which is absolutely the finest collection of pressbooks we have ever been consigned. In this set of auctions, most of the ones we are auctioning are larger pressbooks, mostly 11" x 15" or larger. Some of them were folded at one time, but they were stored unfolded for many years, so we left them unfolded, and unless the new owner requests otherwise, we will send them unfolded, because re-folding them would likely lessen the condition. Many of these are ones we have either never auctioned before or only once auctioned before, sometimes many years ago. These were collected decades ago, which was the only time that many of these could be found, and after these auctions are over it may be years (or decades!) before some of these are offered again. They ARE that rare! Note that pressbooks from the 1930s are almost never found in great condition, and some of them (especially those printed during World War II, including all the MGM ones from that time) are printed on newsprint, and are hard to find in even lesser condition. We have several images from each pressbook. We have given each an overall grade, and ask that you look at our images to get a good sense of the condition of that pressbook, because, since they have many pages, it would take forever to describe their condition in detail. However, EVERY one of these pressbooks is complete and uncut! Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. Note that we solely give an overall grade to these rare pressbooks, and tell you whether it is complete and uncut. However, you can view our multiple images of the covers and the interior pages that should give you a good sense of the pressbook's condition. The covers are mostly separated at the spine.
