It is also said that Lee Harvey Oswald watched this movie days before the Kennedy assassination, but that may also be legend. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. 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: very good to fine, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. This large pressbook (which measures 11" x 17") was never folded (which is quite unusual with large pressbooks, because theater owners would almost always fold them so that they could be stored with lobby cards or one-sheets).
