Perils of the Wilderness (1956) Pressbook
A 15 episode serial from Columbia Pictures, Perils of the Wilderness was released when serials were on the wane, sadly. See this review for it at The Files of Jerry Blake. The serial format should be revived for movie theaters. I'm sure there's a variation of it that will work well with today's audiences. When you think of it, the format simply just moved over to television for many shows.

Monster Madness Issue 3, 1973
By issue 3 of Marvel's Monster Madness, it looks like the editors realized a magazine solely comprised of funny photos was no longer enough. Monsterkids, nurtured on Famous Monsters of Filmland, were growing up: they needed more meat on those monster bones to gnaw on. In this issue, aside from the many two-page photo spreads, you'll find articles on movie reviews, the Creature from the Black Lagoon as the Monster of the Month, the Fear-Fables of Robert Block, and Marvel's Werewolf by Night. Unfortunately, this would be the last issue, but Marvel would soon bring forth Monsters of the Movies to the crowded newsstands and spinner racks.

Captain Sindbad (1963) Pressbook
Lost in Space's (the television series) Guy Williams stars. The script was pared down to lower the budget. Unfortunately, Ray Harryhausen was not involved and the film was shot in Germany. Yes, Germany. I haven't seen this one yet, so I'll leave it at that. But the pressbook is great.

You Only Live Twice (1967) Pressbook
My mom and I would hit the movie theater every time a new James Bond movie was released. She had this wonderful habit of, on my birthday, leaving the presents at the edge of my bed, so when I woke up I'd have all these goodies waiting for me right then and there. One birthday was filled with James Bond coolness: the Gilbert figurines and large action figures, the Corgi Aston Martin, the creme de la creme 007 secret agent attache case, and for good measure, Mattel's Agent M Zero Radio Rifle. I was in secret agent heaven that day for sure. Oh, yeah, this pressbook is pretty cool too.
