Important Added Info: Note that the last time we auctioned an example of this pressbook, it sold for $1,115!

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 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. It was folded across the middle, and there are creases, scuffs, and surface paper loss on the center of the cover in the fold area, and some faint stains down the spine on the cover. The back cover and the interior pages are in pretty nice condition (see our images).
