Note that this movie was originally two competing productions from two different studios, Warner Bros. and 20th Century-Fox (based on two similar books, "The Tower" by Richard Martin Stern, and "The Glass Inferno" by Thomas N. Scortia), and the studios wisely chose to instead collaborate on a single movie, which resulted in a pretty amazing all-star cast, and one of the very best movies of its kind!

Important Added Info: Note that this (or these, in the case of multiple transparencies) was created by and sent by the studio that produced this (in the year noted on this auction) to newspapers, magazines, TV stations, or reviewers, so that they could use them to create the highest quality ads. They can be used to make very high quality reproductions, but bear in mind that we are solely auctioning the physical transparencies and NOT the right to reproduce them, so unless they are public domain, the new owner must acquire the rights elsewhere before reproducing them. There are some transparencies in this set of auctions that were NOT created by studios, but those are very clearly marked. Also, note that we not only took a photograph (or photographs) of how these items appear, but we also scanned them as well, so that you can see the actual images (and how high quality they are). Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
