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 The Animal Kingdom, the 1932 Edward H. Griffith romantic love triange comedy melodrama ("Peerless stars in a down-to-earth drama of human love"; "An attraction worthy of the honor it has won; the first picture to grace the screen of the new RKO-Roxy Theatre in Radio City, New York"; "A Great and Distinctive Picture Wins a Supreme and Exclusive Honor!!"; "A love too sacred to be held in marriage bonds") starring Ann Harding, Leslie Howard, Myrna Loy, William Gargan, and Neil Hamilton

Here is an image of the pressbook's covers and an interior spread:

 

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!).
