Friday The 13th: The Series (1987 - 1990)-Original PR stuff- LeMay, Robey et al.

Description

ATTENTION: Here’s the latest info on shipping. If you pay via Paypal on Saturday or Sunday, I can ship on Monday. If you pay using eBay’s new in-house payment system, I don’t know when I can ship because your money doesn’t show up in my account for a few days. If speed is important to you, my advice is to use Paypal (if eBay will let you).
From the files of a journalist, deceased in 1996, who covered Hollywood periodically from 1932 as a foreign correspondent, exclusively from 1945 as Editor of the Hollywood Foreign Bureau of the United Press, and from 1969 as Hollywood correspondent for various periodicals in Europe. The sources of the multiple materials offered here were many and varied -- movie studios, TV networks, production companies, agencies, PR firms, his own photographers and sometimes himself -- and were used to illustrate his articles in the case of the pix and as background data in the case of the textual publicity material.
Having originally been auctioned off one individual piece at a time several years ago, these batches of multiple materials are now offered either as Lots or as lower priced individual items.
The following Lot of Original PR material from the FRIDAY THE 13TH (1987 - 1990) TV series starring JOHN D. LEMAY, LOUISE ROBEY (aka ROBEY) and CHRISTOPHER WIGGINS is described in some detail below:
NOTE: Your friendly anal retentive photographer would like nothing better than to show you each and every page from PARAMOUNT PICTURES CORPORATION, but eBay has limited the number of photographs to 12. By my count, the number of pages for this item is 21, so by golly, we’ll just have to make do somehow.

Discoloration, if any, is due to oxidation of the paper (and yes, it even happens to photographic paper) from having been tightly pressed up against umpteen newsprint clippings and tearsheets of dubious origin in a manila file folder stuffed in an overloaded file cabinet over a period of some 50+ years.
If you plan on treating these poor old items as artifacts worthy of preservation, I can recommend the Archival Print Preservers made by PrintFile, and by way of full disclosure -- I don’t in any way work for them, nor do I receive compensation. Wish I did, but I don’t.
Due to the new payment system instituted by eBay, I can no longer justify the in-person pickup of items with shipping costs waived. All items now must be shipped. Sorry about that, but these circumstances are clearly beyond my control. If it’s any consolation, I’m not happy about it either.
