Badger silent school teacher romantic marriage homespun comedy ("By Opie Read") starring Will Rogers, Peggy Wood, Herbert Standing, Cullen Landis, Clara Horton, and Guinn 'Big Boy' Williams (in his first movie role!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a few lobby cards and a glass slide from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this pressbook! Not only that, but pressbooks from ANY of Will Rogers' silent movies are beyond rare! This is one of six pressbooks we were consigned from silent Will Rogers movies, and until we were consigned them, we had NEVER auctioned even a single pressbook from any of his silent movies! The six pressbooks are in six separate auctions. 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. 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: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. There are smudges, tiny tears, and tiny bits of paper loss around the edges of the covers.
