Cool Item Of the Month: Radar Men from the Moon pressbookReturn to Cool Item of the Month Archive Added: 08/30/2021 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 this 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 Radar Men from the Moon, the 1952 Fred C. Brannon action science fiction (sci-fi) serial ("Introducing a new character Commando Cody"; "A Republic serial in 12 chapters") starring George Wallace (as Commando Cody), Aline Towne, Roy Barcroft, William Bakewel, Clayton Moore, and Dale Van Sickel. Note that this movie utilized footage from the 1949 serial "King of the Rocket Men" (whose character wore an incredibly similar suit), and also used some footage from 1941's "Adventures of Captain Marvel"! Also note that the lead character from this movie proved so popular that the following year, Republic Pictures gave him his own serial, called "Commando Cody", but in that serial, he was played by Judd Holdren! Here are images of the front, back, and two interior pages: 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!).
