An Undated (probably 1930s) Re-release Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 12" x 18" [30 x 46 cm]; 20 pages) (Learn More) Palmy Days, the 1931 A. Edward Sutherland phony psychic musical comedy farce ("Looks like a million - and costs what it looks like!"; "Remember Girls! If you go beyond the first knuckle, it isn't DUNKING it's swimming"; written by Eddie Cantor) starring Eddie Cantor, Charlotte Greenwood, Barbara Weeks, George Raft (in his fourth credited movie role as a henchman!), Morrie Ryskind, David Freeman, Betty Grable, and Paulette Goddard (Grable and Goddard were two of the many "Goldwyn Girls"!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this pressbook is identical to the first release pressbook, except that instead of being two-color on the covers, it is black and white, and also the words "United Artists Picture" have been removed from the bottom left of the front cover (but NOT the posters on the back cover). We suspect this means the movie went into second run very soon after its first release, and this pressbook was created for this second run theaters (likely in 1932 and 1933). There is also a 1944 Film Classics re-release, but this greatly predates that. If anyone knows more about this re-release, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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. The pressbook is complete and uncut. The covers have separated at the spine and there is wear down the spine of several pages.
