Taken from top secret sources!"; "This is not a motion picture make-believe! The bombs... the bullets... the hell of battle is very real... and very personal! Never have you seen the face of war so close up... frozen on film for all time... for all to see... for all to remember!"; "The American Fighting Man's Most Glorious Hour! On the screen at last! All of World War II"; "In the flak-filled skies over Berlin...On the blood-stained beaches of Normandy...In the infested jungles of the South Pacific...Aboard crippled carriers that withstood the fanatical Kamikaze attacks...You are on the spot--An eye witness to the war that shook the world!"; "On the American screen at last! All of World War 2! Astonishing and absolutely authentic!") of The Smashing of the Reich, the 1962 Perry Wolff World War II (WWII) military documentary ("Fortress Europa... held together by the fanaticism of 80 million people gone mad! You are in the middle of it all as the Allies breach the Atlantic wall and the bombers blast Germany into submission... from Normandy to the Rhine!"; "The most powerful pictures ever presented...Never shown before...Gathered from top secret sources...from Normandy to the Rhine!"; "Hitler's bomb-blasted road to ruin! Top secret terror never shown before... from Normandy to the Rhine!") AND Kamikaze, the 1960 (released in the U.S. in 1962) Perry Wolff World War II (WWII) airplane aviation documentary ("Suicide of a nation! uncut, raw realism, filmed by combat cameras amid the heat and holocaust of battle! ...from Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima!"; "Kamikaze... Mass suicide of a nation... from Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima!") of the Japanese pilots who gave their lives performing suicide missions flying their planes into U.S. ships featuring Jim Stephens, and Duncan Elliot
Important Added Info: Note that this pressbook was folded across the center at one time. Because of this, this pressbook can be sent in one of our standard size packages (if it is purchased together with pressbooks that can NOT be folded, then it will of course have to be sent in one of our oversized packages). But if this pressbook is purchased by itself (or solely with other pressbooks that can be folded), then the shipping will be much lower, because it fits in a standard package. Also 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 the pressbook, plus an image of a two-page spread from inside of the pressbook (we do NOT picture any supplements or heralds, if there are any included with 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)! Finally, 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: good to very good, NO CUTS.
