The Nightcomers (Avco Embassy, 1971), Custom Embossed Presentation Album of (25) Oversized Production Photos of Marlon Brando with Cast and Crew. Vintage original blue/green leather, 4-ring binder/ photo album, with custom gilt embossing on front cover and spine, "STILLS FROM THE NIGHTCOMERS", and inscribed inside front cover, "For Jay [Kanter]/ with love and appreciation/ Michael Winner/ can we do the sequel for $650,000 though?". Contains (25) custom-printed oversize (11" x 14") gelatin-silver semigloss production photos of Marlon Brando, Stephanie Beacham, Thora Hird, Harry Andrews, Verna Harvey, Christopher Ellis and Anna Palk, plus other cast, and a few crew members including Director Michael Winner and producer Jay Kanter, each within (13) clear heavy-vinyl sleeves. Brando appears on all but one photo, and that one is a wonderful shot of Winner and Kanter on set, in deep discussion. This extraordinary, arguably unique custom presentation album was lovingly archived in Jay Kanter's personal library, and was obtained directly from his estate after his recent passing at age 97. Binder covers show sunning at spine and around cover perimeter, with scuffing, small surface losses and stains, and indentations from occasional handling and storage, though all photos remain safely protected within their vinyl pages, virtually free of age or handling (being likely unique custom prints, they have varying borders with occasional uneven edges). Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions. From the estate of producer Jay Kanter.
