Important Added Info: Note that this pressbook was created during the time when MGM (likely in a cost-cutting measure) stopped printing elaborate full-color covers for their pressbooks, and instead solely created several newsprint sections for each movie. It is difficult to know on such movies how many sections were originally created, but there were usually three of them, and if all three are present, then the pressbook is likely complete. In the case of this pressbook, what is offered is solely a single section, which does include poster images, so there may or may not be other sections. Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. As noted above, this may only be one section of the pressbook, or it might be the entire pressbook. It is printed on newsprint and is somewhat fragile, as all WWII MGM newsprint pressbooks are!
