NO HANDS ON THE CLOCK pressbook, Chester Morris, Jean Parker, Rose Hobart 1941

Description

Pressbooks were sent only to theater owners to promote and advertise the movie and are extremely rare especially without cuts.This collection has been of the utmost importance to me and has been stored in a temperature controlled room for many years in a non-smoking home with 2 Hepa air filters and in the summer a strong dehumidifier.
Please note that these images were all scanned, so you have a perfect example of what you are getting.  I am cutting down on my collection and offering many rare pressbooks. Please understand that pressbooks were made to be cut up by theater managers for promotion and to place advertisements in the newspapers, so uncut pressbooks may be hard to find on many titles, and many have been sold off now over the years since Ebay and other auction sites have been in business since the late 1990's. A pressbook with minimal cuts (most of ours are uncut) still has value.
Finally, we do not believe in short descriptions and leaving it up to chance for your satisfaction. We try to list EVERY issue if there are any, instead of just saying "normal wear" or "slight use" or other general terms. We want you to know, since these are collectibles, exactly the condition of the pressbook (which is why we chose to purchase an industrial scanner to be able to scan the largest pressbooks). There is nothing more accurate than a scan. Please also note that when scanning pressbooks, many of these were in newspaper resolution for the photos and advertisements, and the scanner sometimes makes them look like the ads have small lines or squares in them, this is NOT in the pressbook itself but a by-product of the scanning.
Finally, you may wonder why many of our scans (pictures of the product) state in pink letters "SCAN FOR EBAY" over some of the images. I have discovered that there are 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.

Pressbook for the film

NO HANDS ON THE CLOCK

starring
Chester Morris, Jean Parker, Rose Hobart
Pressbook has previously been folded. There is about an inch of spine separation of the covers at the bottom but the pages themselves have not torn. There is some light writing (which looks like pencil) on the top of the cover on the right side (see photo), otherwise this pressbook is in excellent condition,  especially since it was printed in 1941. There is no creasing, the pages are nice and bright and the corners nice and sharp.
PLEASE NOTE THAT MOST OF THE PHOTOS FOR THIS AUCTION SHOW 2 PAGES IN EACH PHOTO as set out on an extra large format scanner! There is no better or accurate way to see what you are buying than with a direct scan!
NUMBER OF PAGES: 12
SIZE:  13" x 16"
YEAR: 1941, ORIGINAL RELEASE

ABOUT SHIPPING:
ALL PRESSBOOKS ARE MAILED WITH A COLLECTABLE PLASTIC COVER AND IN A LARGE STURDY CARDBOARD AND ALL ARE MAILED UNFOLDED!!!  THERE IS  A CHOICE OF MAILING SPEEDS. IF YOU SELECT MEDIA MAIL, YOU ARE WAITING UNTIL THE ITEM SHIPS THE FOLLOWING Tuesday plus about 4-9 days in shipping. Priority is usually much quicker, but we still ship everything on Tuesdays.
ABOUT MY FEEDBACK:
Since Ebay does not allow sellers to respond to negative feedback, I will do so here.   You will note I have a few negatives now.  The feedback that I have received that is negative (3 out of about 1,050), one person never contacted me that they were sent a pressbook with a cut in it (by mistake). I certainly would have corrected the problem immediately if they had just told me. I replaced it immediately. The other 2 are from someone who misunderstood that I send my pressbooks out on Tuesdays and they go Media Mail, which is always an additional 4-8 days. This at least keeps the postage down. I do have an option for priority mail if you are in a rush.  I completely refunded her total postage (after the negative feedback) even though the items were sent as stated.
If you have a problem, PLEASE contact me and I will do everything I can to correct an error.
This is my personal pledge to all of my customers.
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 the offices and saw piles of pressbooks stacked up.  I loved the pressbooks as they had many pages of information of these movies and such great old movie advertising and could be read many times over. I have collected since I was 8. When I obtained a pressbook, it would immediately go into a plastic bag and was taped shut so no air reached these.  My father owned a furniture store which I worked in for 10 years and the first thing and most important thing he taught me was customer relations, to treasure each and every customer, so I am an old-fashioned seller who cares about each sale. I am ALWAYS available to talk to about anything you might be interested in from my store, and if anything does not please you, I guarantee I will do my best to make you happy.
I WILL ONLY SHIP TO PAYPAL CONFIRMED ADDRESSES!
