Sarafian automobile car chase action thriller ("Tighten your seat belt. You never had a trip like this before."; "Watch carefully because everything happens fast. The chase. The desert. The shock. The girl. The roadblock. The end."; "Hear the supercharged sounds of Delaney & Bonnie & Friends, Mountain, Jerry Reed, Big Mama Thornton, The Doug Dillard Expedition, Kim & Dave, Red Steagel, Longbranch/Pennywhistle, The J.B. Pickers") starring Barry Newman, Dean Jagger, Cleavon Little (billed as "Tony Award Winner Cleavon Little as Super Soul"), Victoria Medlin, Paul Koslo, Gilda Texter (as the "nude motorcycle rider" who made such an impression on so many viewers!), Charlotte Rampling (her scenes were cut before the U.S. release, but included in the English version, though she is still credited on some stills), Rita Coolidge (the famous singer, in an uncredited part), and Ted Neeley (also uncredited, singing in a scene with Coolidge!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that when studios would prepare pressbooks they would often include a sample of the herald. Most often, the herald is no longer still with the pressbook. Sometimes, the herald by itself will sell for almost as much as the rest of the entire pressbook! This pressbook contains the original herald which is pictured next to the pressbook below. 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. Almost every Academy Award winning movie would have a special "Academy Award winner" supplement. 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 received 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. It was folded across the middle. Learn More about condition grades
