Press Preview Ticket - June 28th, 1951

Perhaps my favorite piece of ephemera is this original press preview ticket for a showing at the Academy Awards Theatre, a full month before the world premiere.

This is one of a pair I received from a truly great guy, John Kukasakis, of the dearly departed Freedonia Funnyworks in Southern California. He acquired them from the estate of a newspaper reporter (if memory serves) and I have always been most grateful to him for thinking of me.
