An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 15 1/2" [28 x 39 cm]; 20 pages) (Learn More) Green Light, the 1937 Frank Borzage romantic medical doctor hospital melodrama ("The story that changed the lives of a million lovers!"; based on the novel by Lloyd C. Douglas; about a young doctor who takes the fall for the mistake of an elder doctor) starring Errol Flynn, Anita Louise, Margaret Lindsay, Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Walter Abel, and Henry O'Neill. Note that Warner Bros. was afraid of the subject matter of this movie, and given that Flynn was a great lover, they "sold" the movie with advertising that showed Flynn between pretty Anita Louise and pretty Margaret Lindsay, with the tagline "The story that changed the lives of a million lovers!", trying to make audiences think they were going to see a movie based on a romantic love triangle! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this pressbook! Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners received 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, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was never folded. However, there are creases and tears around the edges of the cover, with a long crease near the center. There is small paper loss in the lower left. Someone put tape on the back of some of the tears. There was once a tipped-in herald that is no longer present. Learn More about condition grades
