I Dream Too Much, the 1935 John Cromwell romantic musical comedy ("Open the floodgates of your heart for a new romantic thrill!... Lily Pons!... Brilliant, beautiful, irresistible... As the girl who fought her way from the tinsel of the night clubs to the top-most rungs of fame!"; "Music by Jerome Kern, Composer of 'Roberta'"; the old story of a struggling young composer who meets a pretty singer and they impulsively marry; but he can't get work, and she becomes a major singing star, which causes much friction between them) starring Lily Pons, Henry Fonda (second billed in his third movie role!), Eric Blore, Osgood Perkins, Lucien Littlefield, Lucille Ball, Mischa Auer, and Scotty Beckett. Note that Lily Pons was a real life opera star who was drafted into movies after the great success of Jeanette MacDonald, and for her first one, she was given this movie, with music by Jerome Kern, who had composed the music for the hit movie "Roberta" the year before. But she only appeared in three movies between 1935 and 1937, and then returned to opera singing. Also note that Henry Fonda had achieved success on Broadway from 1932 to 1934, and in 1935, he starred in THREE movies (his first three!), surely one of the most remarkable debuts of any movie actor, and he certainly proved that he deserved it, going onto a very long and distinguished career!

Important Added Info: Note that in December 2021, we were consigned a truly remarkable collection of pressbooks (the first 37 were auctioned in our December Major Auction, and the most expensive one sold for $17,500!). In our regular auctions since, we have auctioned hundreds more from this collection. Now we continue to auction more of these pressbooks, which is absolutely the finest collection of pressbooks we have ever been consigned. In this set of auctions, most of the ones we are auctioning are larger pressbooks, mostly 11" x 15" or larger. 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! Note that pressbooks from the 1930s are almost never found in great condition, and some of them (especially those printed during World War II, including all the MGM ones from that time) are printed on newsprint, and are hard to find in even lesser condition. We have several images from each pressbook. 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!
