An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 9" x 12" [23 x 30 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) Art Films Productions, the 1952 series of 7 documentary short films (directed by Jean Oser and produced by Marilyn Silverstone) about seven of the best artists and their works (Degas, Renoir, Botticelli, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Raphael, and "Renaissance art"). The titles are: Curtain Call, The Night Watch, The Young Immortal, I Remember the Glory, Light in the Window, Birth of Venus, and Joy of Living. Each was in Technicolor and each was shot in Europe where those masterpieces were located. They were likely primarily distributed to schools, although there is a page within the pressbook which recommends showing it in a regular theater. There was a 22x28 half-sheet, lobby card, and set of stills for each of the seven shorts, but no one-sheets (but we have never seen any of these items, and we have only ever seen a single pressbook!). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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 and there is minor wear around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
