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 Peg o' My Heart, the 1933 Robert Z. Leonard Ireland romantic melodrama (based on the play by J. Hartley Manners; about an Irish girl who inherits a lot of money from her grandfather, but the grandfather hated his son, her father, and he left the money to her on the condition that she never see her father again!; the father nobly sends his daughter away to school, and then fakes his death, so she can inherit the money, but she learns of the ruse, and renounces the inheritance and returns home to her beloved father, with her new boyfriend close behind) starring Marion Davies (in the title role as Peg), Onslow Stevens, J. Farrell MacDonald, Juliette Compton, Juliette Compton.

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!). And remember to check out our previous Cool Items of the Week in our Cool Item of the Week archive (which is now fully searchable!).
