    Description

    Pressbooks were sent only to theater owners to promote and advertise the movie and are extremely rare especially without cuts.This collection has been of the utmost importance to me and has been stored in a temperature controlled room with 2 Hepa air filters. When purchasing pressbooks, remember that many were stored in the basements and attics of theaters, and could be damp or marked.
    Please note that these images were all scanned, so you have a perfect example of what you are getting. Some pressbooks have thinner pages and the scanner with the very bright light often will pick up the print on the other side, so please keep that in mind when looking at the photos, this does not show when looking at the page and also the scanner may produce shadows on the sides which aren't there. Also, some of these are just too big for even a large format scanner (11 x 17) so you may not see entire pages, but they are there, and because of the oversize, you may see shadows along the 4 edges, unless in the description, those are from the scanner and are not present.
    Please note that almost all pressbooks from the 50's (maybe even some from the 60's) may have a slightly darkened paper color due to years of sitting about. This is completely normal for magazines and other printed material from those eras. The scans have a hard time showing the paper color, if a particular pressbook has darkened more than average I will certainly say so in my description. Also please note that my pressbook descriptions are very precise, instead of just saying "there is some wear throughout," I believe in describing each issue if there are any. So while at times my description may have a list of issues, please note that many of them can be quite small that others might not feel worth mentioning. This is a collectible and I feel people should know everything down to an extremely small tear.

    Pressbook has
    NEVER BEEN FOLDED.  The main issue with this edition is there are three tears on the bottom left corner and the bottom center, see the last photo. There is a small l/5th of an inch tear at the top about halfway across. These tears are in the border area of pages 2,3 and 4, and do not touch the print on those pages.
    The pages of this pressbook are printed on a beautiful glossy paper. An original piece (NOT A COPY) of Hollywood nostalgia!
    Choice of media mail or priority.
    NUMBER OF PAGES: 4
    SIZE:  11" X 17"
    YEAR: 1949, reissue

    PLEASE NOTE: THE ONLY DAY I HAVE AVAILABLE TO SHIP ITEMS IS  TUESDAY...PLEASE NOTE THAT IT MAY TAKE UP TO ONE WEEK FOR YOUR ORDER TO SHIP. This is due to my disability. Also note most of the time we ship much sooner but there have been times when I need a few extra days.
    I am sorry about this but I am disabled and these are the only days I can get help with packaging and going to the post office. There is a chance I may be able to mail earlier but contact me before you bid. Usually they go out on Tuesday. If you select media mail, this could take up to 12 days depending on when you made the purchase. This is the best I can do with my overall health.
