A 1942 Re-Release Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 15 1/4" [28 x 39 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) The Terror of Tiny Town, the bizarre cult classic 1938 Sam Newfield musical cowboy western comedy ("These Tom Thumbs are colossal!"; "Half-pints in 10-gallon hats! First time on the screen!"; "Rip-snortin' all-midget action show! First time on any screen!"; "All-midget cast! First time on the screen! Fighting... singing... loving!") starring Jed Buell's Midgets, Billy Curtis, Yvonne Moray, 'Little Billy' Rhodes, Billy Platt, and John T. Bambury. Note that director Sam Newfield had the novel idea of filming a western where the entire cast was played by little people (Jed Buell's Midgets among others). It may not be among the greatest movies ever made, but it certainly is high on the list of the most unusual movies ever made! Also note that some of the cast members of this movie would have a far better role the following year, when they were cast as Munchkins in MGM's classic "The Wizard of Oz"! Important Added Info: 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 purchased 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. There are some creases at the top and bottom of the spine. Otherwise, the pressbook is in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
