    Description

    "LONG JOHN SILVER" ORIGINAL MOVIE PRESSBOOK
    - 1954 DCA (Distributors Corporation of America). 12" x 16". 12 pages. 2-color cover art.
    We are offering an informative b&w pressbook filled with publicity ideas, exploitation and advertising layouts. There's a great merchandising section with all kinds of toys, apparel and souvenirs inspired by this colorful pirate film.
    This is for the 1954 original release of the adventure drama starring Robert Newton. Newton's pirate characterization is regarded as the quintessential pirate performance. His stereotyped crusty "sea dog" mannerisms are being copied to this day.
    Long John Silver was made in Australia, and the same company went on to make a 26 episode TV series with the same actors (called "The Adventures of Long John Silver"). The director, Byron Haskin, had directed Walt Disney's Treasure Island in 1950, with Newton as Silver.
    This highly graphic manual is packed with exceptional eye appeal. Overall, a wealth of reference info on this popular pirate title.
    Condition is considered FAIR with moderate surface/edge wear. Miscellaneous surface staining with corner paper deterioration/chipping on upper front & back covers. Moderate surface creasing with scattered small page tears. Two ad pages are loose from binding. Minor pen marking on one ad with no page cuts. No spine edge separation. Appears complete.
    Overall, we feel this manual is still in very displayable and serviceable condition by most standards (see photos).
    This pressbook will be mailed rolled. A wonderful addition for the discriminating PIRATE and/or VINTAGE MOVIE MEMORABILIA enthusiast. On a condition code scale of 1 to 10, the above listed item(s) rated - (6).
