My Darling!"), the 1965 Silvio Narizzano English Hammer murder horror thriller ("The ultimate in stabbing suspense!... the intimate in shear shock!... don't don't..... don't dare miss it!"; "In stabbing color!"; "Sledge-Hammer suspense to shock you from your seat!"; "The ultimate in sheer shock!..."; "The intimate in stabbing suspense!..."; "Screenplay by Richard Matheson"; "Based on the best-seller 'Nightmare' by Anne Blaisdell"; "Sledge-Hammer suspense to shock you from your seat!") starring Tallulah Bankhead ("...is the demon"), Stefanie Powers ("...is the darling"), Maurice Kaufman, Peter Vaughan, Yootha Joyce, and Donald Sutherland (in one of his earliest movie roles!) 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. 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. Condition: fine. This pressbook is in excellent condition! It is complete and UNCUT, which is unusual, since the purpose of pressbooks was for theaters to cut out one or more of the ads and use them in their local newspapers. It has also never been folded, which is also unusual, as almost all larger pressbooks were folded in half so that they could be more easily transported. I can't imagine a collector who would not be very happy owning this pressbook! Learn More about condition grades
