An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 17" [28 x 43 cm]; 6 pages) (Learn More) Flight to Mars, the 1951 Lesley Selander science fiction (sci-fi) outer space thriller ("The Most Fantastic Expedition Ever Conceived by Man!"; "Fifty years into the future!"; "What will they find?"; "Has science solved the mightiest mystery of the universe?"; "You'll want to turn back.... but you can't!") starring Marguerite Chapman, Cameron Mitchell, Arthur Franz, John Litel, and Morris Ankrum. Note that the producers of the movie guessed that a real life flight to Mars would take place in 2001. Of course, this never happened, but now, thanks to Elon Musk, it may happen just a couple of decades past that date! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that there is both a pressbook with a full-color cover for this and a black & white one. Our guess is that two versions were made (maybe the color ones were sent to the bigger theaters). It seems unlikely it is a re-release, because we don't know that the movie was re-released! If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also 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. Learn More about condition grades
