Important Added Info: Note that this classic sci-fi movie had its limited first release in 1968 in Cinerama, and it played in a limited number of theaters. We don't think there was a pressbook made for the limited Cinerama release, because we have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning. The non-Cinerama pressbook has a 1969 copyright in it, and we feel pretty certain that is the first pressbook that was made for this movie, and that is what we are auctioning here. If anyone WERE to find a "Cinerama" pressbook that was dated 1968, it would surely sell for a great deal of money! Note that the pressbook has a single small ad cut out from one of the interior pages, but is otherwise complete and in pretty nice condition. 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.
