TDTESS LINKS

Lobbycards and posters were produced in large quantities for this film. Here are just a few examples, visit Dreamer's TDTESS site to see an enormous variety of them.

And here's a selection of the inevitable merchandise including mugs and a token T-shirt. The letter on the left is interesting, however. It's a first-day cover honouring Bernard Herrman as "Hollywood Composer".
