An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 9" x 12" [23 x 30 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More) Bobbed Hair, the 1922 Thomas N. Heffron silent romantic love triangle comedy ("Cutting loose from convention"; about a woman torn between a "respectable businessman" and a "futuristic poet" who lives in an art colony, but not surprisingly for the time, it turns out the poet is a creep who is married with children, and his wife catches him seducing the girl, who runs back to her respectable businessman) starring Wanda Hawley, William Boyd, Adele Farrington, Leigh Wyant, and Jane Starr. Note that this movie dealt with the then current craze of women wearing short hair, something that had not happened for an incredibly long time, if at all (of course, by the late 1920s, a high percentage of women had their hair short!). Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Lauren Stout Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this pressbook, and that was 8 years ago. That pressbook has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still the only example we have ever auctioned! 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 received 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: good to very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook was removed from a bound volume and there are now tiny tears and some paper loss down the spine (it only affects blank white paper). There is slight darkening around the edges of all pages. Otherwise, the pressbook is in pretty good condition. Learn More about condition grades
