#1 RAREST PROMOTIONAL BOOK ON OZ!
THE ONLY KNOWN SURVIVING ORIGINAL WORLDWIDE!!
Mrs.Miniver is usually known for offering the exotically rare Star Wars poster, but we couldn't be happier about the fact that we can offer what is undoubtedly one of the rarest original Wizard of OZ promotional items to have ever surfaced on the collecting market:
A 1939 Advance theater exhibitor's Preview Booklet declaring OZ as "the "greatest picture ever made!"
This INDUSTRY ONLY promotional book was sent to theater owners in the late spring of 1939, right after the first preview of "The Wizard of Oz." Interestingly, directly upon completion of the now classic, MGM declared the film "the greatest Picture ever made!" That’s certainly a humongous claim coming from the golden studio at the peak of the "Golden Era" in Hollywood's history. It's all documented in this 10-page book, which saw only ONE printing. This item is so rare, that until now, it's never been seen anywhere on the collecting market. Additionally, no reproductions exist globally. It's an exclusive item for the Oz-o-file who wants a unique item at a nice price.
The book measures approximately twelve and a half by nine and a half inches. It's in
EXCELLENT UNRESTORED ORIGINAL CONDITION!
I've posted photos of all the pages in the order in which they're presented in the original. The book will be professionally packaged and shipped within 24 hours of payment
