Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of the pressbook, plus an image of the center two-page spread, which includes the cool newspaper style herald, which was bound in with the pressbook (but was easily removable, and is often missing from other examples of the pressbook). Condition: very good, NO CUTS. The covers are completely separated from each other and from the rest of the pressbook. There is some tiny paper loss in the bottom right corner of the cover and a few tiny areas of paper loss in the edges of the back cover (but it does not affect the poster pages). The pressbook is complete and uncut! Learn More about condition grades
