New York: Estate of Michael Todd, 1959.
Sold
Softcover. First edition. Edited by Dick Williams. Thin quarto. Tape bound printed glossy wrappers. A couple of smudges on the front wrap, else fine. According to the front wrap, this is the first souvenir book to contain a "hi-quality long playing record". Record is present in fine condition but the "quality" is debatable. A tie-in to the first and only film to feature Smell-o-Vision, a mechanical system that released odors into specially equipped theaters at crucial moments in the film. The film, featuring Denholm Elliott, Peter Lorre, and Todd's stepmother, Elizabeth Taylor, had to compete with not only poor early reviews (when there were still mechanical problems), but also with a documentary on China using a similar theatrical odor system called AromaRama.
