Important Added Info: NOTE: In this case, the #2 in the title of this sale is not the style of the pressbook. In this case, the styles from this particular set of pressbooks were not labeled, but because we are selling more than one pressbook from this title this week as separate eBay sales, we needed to differentiate between them, and we did so by marking them "#1, #2, etc. Note that this pressbook is part of an amazing collection of 456 different horror/sci-fi pressbooks (our items #5387 through #5842)! The collector who assembled this collection did so over a span of several decades, and to duplicate it would surely take at least that long, if one started today. But on October 30th, every one of these pressbooks will go to a new owner, as all are being sold with NO reserve. Note that this collection spans the years from 1950 to 1972, and just about every single 1950s and 1960s horror/sci-fi movie is represented here. Also note that we have listed them in DATE order (first by year, and then alphabetically within years). This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire rare pressbooks that almost never are offered for sale! Condition: very good to fine. Note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Since pressbooks were INTENDED to be cut up (the theater owners would cut out the newspaper ads to run in their local papers). It is very difficult to find a pressbook that has NOT been cut, and that ads greatly to their value! very minor creases, smudges, and scuffs throughout the pressbook (mostly around the edges) Learn More about condition grades
