Important Added Info: Note that this pressbook has an actual record printed on red vinyl tipped-in to the first interior page, and there is a contest to win a TV set that is pictured and you had to play the record to learn the rules of the contest (see our image). We previously auctioned two pressbooks from this movie, and we think that neither of them had this special promotion or record, so it is likely something that was done on some pressbooks, but not all, and having the complete pressbook with the tipped-in record is surely a great rarity! 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: very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut. It was folded across the middle. Learn More about condition grades
