Cool Item Of the Week: Talk of the Town pressbookReturn to Cool Item of the Month Archive Added: 07/30/2018 As many of you know, I, Bruce Hershenson, owner of eMoviePoster.com, have collected pressbooks (and related movie paper like studio yearbooks) for over 30 years, and I have the world's foremost collection of such material. I thought I would share one item with you each week, the type of items you almost surely have never seen before, and which might not come up for sale for DECADES! This week, I have the pressbook from The Talk of the Town, the 1942 George Stevens romantic love triangle crime comedy ("Romance vibrantly alive! Drama poignantly real! Laughter joyously human!"; "A motion picture made for laughs... thrills... cheers!"; "Great stars bring you a heart-stir-ring screen adventure!"; "Screen play by Irwin Shaw and Sidney Buchman"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about an eminent law professor who is staying at the home of a school teacher, and he lets a gardener stay there as well, but the gardener is actually an escapee from a prison, and eventually, the professor and the teacher learn of his true identity, and the professor clears him of the charges against him, even though it means he will lose the school teacher to him romantically; this was a good movie that was made better by the tremendous "star power" of the three lead actors!) starring Cary Grant, Jean Arthur, Ronald Colman, Edgar Buchanan, Glenda Farrell, Tom Tyler, and Charles Dingle Here is an image of the front cover and two inside spreads: Each week I will showcase a different pressbook (or related item) from my collection (so in just 25,000 weeks or so, I will have shared the entire collection with you!).
