An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 10 3/4" x 16 3/4" [27 x 43 cm]; 16 pages) (Learn More)

Shanghai, the 1935 James Flood China interracial romance romantic love triangle melodrama ("He is a Coolie! He is a Prince! - He is a Pauper! He is a Millionaire! - He is Chinese! He is Russian! - He is Yellow! He is White! Yet to one woman he is life itself!"; about a woman visiting Shanghai who falls in love with a handsome wealthy Russian, but he has a terrible secret, which is that he is half Chinese, and she would be scandalized if she found out) starring Loretta Young, Charles Boyer, Warner Oland (best remembered as Charlie Chan in the 20th Century Fox series), Alison Skipworth, Fred Keating, and Keye Luke. Note that Warner Oland played an Asian in this movie, so he looks exactly as he did in the Charlie Chan movies!

Important Added Info: 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 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, NO CUTS. There is thick black tape down the front of the spine and yellowed clear tape on the back of the spine, which has caused much staining in that area (see our images). The interior pages have darkened and are somewhat fragile.
