*****
This auction includes an original studio three sheet poster (41" x 81) from the film
(see first photo image on the right and photo 10)! This poster is NOT a copy or reproduction but a studio original. While pressbooks are my main business, I am now including other movie collectibles that I have amassed over the years. The pressbook in all of our auctions is the main item because that is my specialty. I do not grade or describe the condition of the posters (except for maybe a brief description if necessary) as I am not an expert on movie posters, stills or lobby cards, it is up to you to study the photo as to the poster's condition. We guarantee that the photo posted here is a direct photo of the poster included (the poster image can be enlarged). Some posters have some kind of defect  whether it might be pinholes or writing on the back, blemishes, tears, creases, taped areas, an area with a rippled effect (probably from dampness, which can usually be seen on the scans, but not always) so please look very carefully as most of these have been used by theaters. On the other hand as I continue to look through these, some are in great condition and a few look like they were never used. So it is up to you to study the photo. All posters have been folded. This was the way they were originally sent to the theaters.
These posters are included AS IS!

Before bidding, if you have any questions, please send us a message and we will respond the same day. Please note that all of our pressbook images are
scanned
directly from the pressbook up for auction. Scans allow you to see every detail, which is why we chose to scan our images rather than photograph them.   This collection has been of the utmost importance to me and has been stored in a temperature controlled room for many years in non-smoking home storage with 2 Hepa air filters and in the summer 2 industrial dehumidifiers, inside a protective bag. When scanning pressbooks, almost all of the images inside were printed to be "newspaper ready." Newspapers use a larger dot (lower resolution) image to make up a photo or advertisement, so while scanning them for viewing here, some images look like there may be light lines or dark areas on faces and other parts of an image, please note this is a result of scanning, the actual images do not have that effect. Finally, you may wonder why many of our scans (pictures of the product) state in pink letters "PHOTO FOR EBAY" or something similar over some of the images. I have discovered that there were people copying these images and enlarging them and making prints to sell on auction web sites. So to prevent this illegal activity, we are forced to put some print over some of the better images, they are not on the items themselves.

ABOUT ME:
I have been a movie fan all of my life, my grandfather worked for both Universal and RKO, and my mother was an editor at Paramount. At age 8 I was taken to my grandfather's offices and saw piles of movie pressbooks stacked up.  I have collected since I was 8. Over the years, when I obtained a pressbook, it would immediately go into a plastic bag and was taped shut so no air could enter. This was after I unfolded them, if they were folded.  My father owned a furniture store which my grandfather opened in 1900, which I worked at for 10 years and the first thing and most important thing he taught me was about customer relations, to treasure each and every customer, so I am an old-fashioned seller who cares about each sale, a "mom and pop" store. I am ALWAYS available to talk about anything you might be interested in from my store or our transaction as I check my Ebay mail almost every 2 hours during the day. I do love talking about movies. Please don't hesitate to message me.
I WILL ONLY SHIP TO PAYPAL CONFIRMED ADDRESSES!
