Important Added Info: Note that this pressbook is extremely rare! We have only auctioned it twice before in all our years of auctioning, and one of those examples had several cuts (this example is uncut). Note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook, 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 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: very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. There are creases in the top left and bottom right corners of the cover and some faint horizontal creases in the bottom. There are a few small tears in the borders of the cover and there is 1" of separation at the top of the spine. Otherwise, the pressbook and the supplement are in nice condition!
