An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 13 1/2" x 21 1/4" [34 x 54 cm]; 32 pages). Also included is an ad herald that has one page (it is called a "study guide herald" and has "facts" about the movie). (Learn More)

Walt Disney's 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, the classic 1955 Richard Fleischer Walt Disney underwater science fiction (sci-fi) scuba diving adventure thriller ("The Mightiest Motion Picture Of Them All!"; "Based on the novel by Jules Verne") starring Kirk Douglas, James Mason (as Captain Nemo), Paul Lukas, Peter Lorre, Robert J. Wilke, Ted de Corsia, and Carleton Young. Note that the studio claimed that Kirk Douglas did all of his scenes himself, refusing a stunt double, even for the "thrilling and dangerous underwater scenes"!
NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Important Added Info: 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)!

Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was never folded, which is unusual for a pressbook of this size (13 1/2" x 21 1/4"). It has some wear along the spine and on the covers. There is a water stain in the top right corner of the cover, and the first three interior pages, but the pages do not stick together, and the staining is faint.
