All items offered are genuine release (usually 1st), old, cinema movie items and so had a 'life' before sale, so unlikely ever to be mint.

This item: An original, vintage UK pressbook for this excellent Val Lewton horror movie based on the famous Robert Louis Stevenson story. The pressbook comprises 4 pages with synopsis, cast list, various articles, catchlines, illustrated ads and photos from the movie. As this was produced at the end of World War II when there was a paper shortage, the pressbook is printed on rather fragile newspaper quality, so many examples are unlikely to have survived into modern times.   Rare

Size:    9.00 x 12.00 inches approx. (opened)

Condition: (Range from Fine – Very Good – Good – Poor with ++ to - - for further differentiation) :  Very Good +-:  horizontal page fold;  good corners and edges with some edge wear and small paper loss to bottom white border front cover not affecting text nor images; overall, a good copy of a rare collectors' item. (Please see photos for fuller detail; feel free to ask a specific question on condition).  

POST & PACKAGING: all items are securely packaged, for as a collector myself I appreciated the need for secure packaging and all materials used are new. Posting / shipping depends on the item value and under £10.00 1st class post will be used; for items over this amount a tracked system will be used for both UK and international postings / shipping.
