His 50th Film

London: British & American Film Press Ltd.. Very Good+. 1966. First Edition. Stapled wraps. [light rubbing to front cover, some mild staining along spine on rear cover]. (B&W photographs, ads, graphics) Glossy 44-page (including covers) promotional booklet issued in conjunction with the British release of Alfred Hitchcock's TORN CURTAIN. Contents: "Dateline Elstree 1949," by C. H. B.-Williamson, summarizing some of the British press coverage when Hitchcock was in England shooting STAGE FRIGHT; a two-page career summary by George Perry; "Hitchcock Highlights," by Ted Gilling; "A Publicist's Dream (or Rarely a Hitch!)" by Geoffrey Watkins. There is also much content throughout on TORN CURTAIN itself -- a brief blurb, credits, illustrations, a double-page center-spread ad, etc. -- and numerous congratulatory advertisements. (It's just too bad it wasn't one of his better films.) .
