Auction History Result #A614 OCEAN'S 11 pressbook '60 classic Rat Pack! Date Sold 3/9/2004Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (measures 11" x 17"; 16 pages) (Learn More) Ocean's Eleven, the classic 1960 Lewis Milestone Las Vegas Nevada Rat Pack multi-million-dollar multi-casino hold-up gambling crime caper thriller ("That Big One!!"; "Nobody else would have dared it because nobody else would have the nerve!"; "You wouldn't call it a gang. Just Danny Ocean and his 11 pals - the night they blew all the lights in Las Vegas!..."; about 11 Army veterans joining together to rob five Las Vegas casinos at once!) starring Frank Sinatra (in the title role as Danny Ocean), Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford (the preceding were called "The Rat Pack" because they were real-life friends who socialized regularly), Angie Dickinson, Richard Conte, Cesar Romero, Patrice Wymore, Joey Bishop (who surprisingly was given very low billing, under that of Patrice Wymore!), Akim Tamiroff, Henry Silva, and "Guest Stars" Red Skelton, George Raft, and Ilka Chase. Note that several Las Vegas casinos agreed to allow filming within their casinos, and without that, the movie could never have been made for a reasonable price. This might seem odd, given that the premise of the movie was a massive robbery of the casinos, but it would be next to impossible to accomplish in real life, because Las Vegas is in the middle of a giant desert, so even if such a robbery could be successful, how would the perpetrators escape with the money?

Also note that there was tape across the middle of the back page and there is tape and paper loss across the three images on the middle of the back page. Finally note that the entire pressbook is separating horizontally across the middle. Obviously, this pressbook has major defects, so please do not bid on it unless you can accept its defects. Condition: good. This pressbook has either ads cut out or missing pages or both. Above we noted exactly how many cut ads or missing pages there are, whether or not they affect the poster page, and any other significant defects the pressbook has. It has been folded in half horizontally, which is typical of almost all larger pressbooks. Oversized pressbooks were usually folded in half so that they could be more easily transported.
