Artist: Morr Kusnet Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this pressbook, and that was 9 years ago, when it sold for $410! Note that in December 2021, we were consigned a truly remarkable collection of pressbooks, and the most expensive one sold for $17,500! In our regular auctions since, we have auctioned many hundreds more from this collection. Now we come to the very end of this collection, which is absolutely the finest collection of pressbooks we have ever been consigned. In this set of auctions, we have the last 23 top quality pressbooks from this collection, and then there are no more! Some of them were folded at one time, but they were stored unfolded for many years, so we left them unfolded, and unless the new owner requests otherwise, we will send them unfolded, because re-folding them would likely lessen the condition. Many of these are ones we have either never auctioned before or only once auctioned before, sometimes many years ago. These were collected decades ago, which was the only time that many of these could be found, and after these auctions are over it may be years (or decades!) before some of these are offered again. They ARE that rare! We have several images from each of these pressbooks. We have given each an overall grade, and ask that you look at our images to get a good sense of the condition of that pressbook, because, since they have many pages, it would take forever to describe their condition in detail. However, EVERY one of these pressbooks is complete and uncut! Note: We have 14 images of this pressbook, but due to a space limitation, only TEN of the 14 images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see the other 4. Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. Note that we solely give an overall grade to these rare pressbooks, and tell you whether it is complete and uncut. However, you can view our multiple images of the covers and the interior pages that should give you a good sense of the pressbook's condition. This particular pressbook was removed from a bound volume and there is thick tape down the spine, covering the holes caused by brads down the spine. The pressbook had a tipped-in herald that is no longer present (of course, one could find another example to replace it with). Learn More about condition grades
