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!

So below is the pressbook from Man of a Thousand Faces, the 1957 Joseph Pevney horror movie actor biography ("The True Story of the Life and Loves of Lon Chaney!"; "Universal's special picture for Hollywood's Golden Jubilee"; "Story by Ralph Wheelwright") starring James Cagney (in the title role as Lon Chaney Sr.; "As the fabulous Lon Chaney"), Dorothy Malone ("And as sensational as in her Academy Award performance for 'Written on the Wind'..."), Jane Greer, Marjorie Rambeau, Jim Backus, Roger Smith, and Robert Evans (billed as "Robert J. Evans"; as Irving Thalberg)

Here is an image of the pressbook's cover and two interior pages:

Each week I will showcase a different pressbook (or related item) from my collection (so in just 20,000 weeks or so, I will have shared the entire collection with you!). And remember to check out our previous Cool Items of the Week in our Cool Item of the Week archive (which is fully searchable!).
