Important Added Info: Note that it is quite likely that this all-star epic movie played in continuous release for at least three years, which would mean that the 1958 posters and lobby cards (which reference its Best Picture Academy Award winning status) are not technically "re-releases", so we are not calling them that, but we do identify them as being from 1958 because they were printed in that year, two years after the movie first came out. 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. Learn More about condition grades
