An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 12 1/4" x 15" [31 x 38 cm]; 16 pages) (Learn More) The Buster Keaton Story, the 1957 Sidney Sheldon movie acting biographical melodrama ("Written by Sidney Sheldon and Robert Smith"; about one of the greatest screen comedians of all time!) starring Donald O'Connor (in the title role as Buster Keaton), Ann Blyth, Rhonda Fleming (billed as "Guest Star"), Peter Lorre, Jackie Coogan, and Cecil B. DeMille (in a cameo role as himself!). Note that while Paramount bought the rights to Keaton's life from Keaton, and hired him as a "technical advisor", the movie is remarkably inaccurate in depicting his life (although Donald O'Connor does an excellent job recreating Keaton's comic style, probably one of the only people who could ever have done so at all convincingly!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: 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 purchased 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. There is grease pencil writing on the back cover that affects two poster images. Learn More about condition grades
