     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 "Found Alive (On the Delta of the Rio Grande)", the 1934 Charles Hutchison Mexico jungle adventure thriller ("Lurking terrors of the jungle! The lure of savage love!"; about a mother who kidnaps her son to the Mexican jungle) starring Barbara Bedford, Maurice Murphy, Robert Frazer, Edwin Cross, and Ernie Adams. Note that in modern times we don't think of Mexico as being the setting for a "jungle" movie, but obviously this was not the case in 1934!

Here is an image of the front cover and the back "poster page" (see larger images by clicking on these thumbnails). Note that in those days almost every movie had a completely different image for every single  poster, and that this pressbook had a really cool full-color cover image that was different from the posters!

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!).
