THE CASTLE Rare AUSTRALIAN Movie Press Sheet

 

Original Country of Origin Australian Press sheet, single page, printed one side only, fine – very fine condition.
 
Australian Press sheets provide important historical information on movies, particularly for those that were filmed in Australia. They often comprised a single page sometimes printed on both sides, sometimes not and occasionally four or more pages. They would generally include a synopsis of the film and cast details plus information about posters and newspaper advertising. They have been neglected over the years and were usually thrown away after use but it would be good to see an historical archive of all Australian press sheets.
