Important Added Info: Note that toward the end of World War II, MGM started economizing on their pressbooks (either due to lessening revenues or paper shortages, or both). Their movies had pressbooks that came in two sections measuring 11" x 15" each, and both were printed entirely on newsprint. Together they contain all the material the earlier pressbooks had (posters, newspaper ads, publicity, etc), but solely on newsprint. 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)!

Condition: good, NO CUTS. There is a newspaper ad cut from one of the sections.
