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 College, the classic 1927 James W. Horne silent romantic baseball track-and-field sports athlete higher education slapstick comedy ("Rah! Rah! Rah! Kiss...Boom...Bah! KEATON 'College' Hah! Hah! Hah!"; "The Intercollegiate LAUGH RIOT"; "Happiest of all Keaton Comedies"; "Nit-Wit and Big Wit of the party"; "Go get 'em Buster - I'm with you: You've got brains and muscle too! Make 'em laugh And roar out load But watch me waving In the crowd."; "Highbrow Student and Sap Athlete") starring Buster Keaton, Anne Cornwall, Flora Bramley, Harold Goodwin, and Snitz Edwards

Here is an image of the printed envelope the pressbook came in, plus the poster pages from the interior AND the page that pictures the herald (and of course ALL the art is by the incredible Hap Hadley):

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 now fully searchable!).
