Description
Original first edition program from one of the all-time iconic American movies. This is the true first edition (there is no picture of Hattie McDaniel on the back cover) in the original color-printed, stiff-card wrappers. Sold in theaters that were showing the film, it most likely never occurred to the promotion personnel to include McDaniel’s photo on the rear cover, along with the other main characters of the novel. Presumably, once Hattie became the first African-American to win an academy award (Best Supporting Actress) they could hardly leave her off the rear cover. This has made the first edition much scarcer than all the later printings. (Interestingly, Hattie McDaniel also holds the distinction as being the first African-American to sing on radio). Profusely Illustrated in color and black and white from drawings and photos. Front cover hinge once nearly detached, has been reinforced with conservator’s nearly invisible tape. It is not visible on the front cover. Very small tear on cover closed with conservator’s tape from reverse side. Light soiling and some scuffing at edges. Wrinkling to upper left corner where it was once folded. Toned in that area on reverse side of cover. Rear cover a little more soiled. Inside clean with opposing fold marks at bottom near gutter. A real piece of American film history. 9 x 12. 18 pp. THIS VINTAGE BROCHURE IS INSERTED INTO A GLASSINE SLEEVE, ATTACHED TO A STIFF BOARD, THEN ENCASED IN BUBBLE WRAP AND PLACED IN A BUBBLE ENVELOPE FOR ABSOLUTE SECURITY IN TRANSIT.
