LOS ANGELES TIMES, December 19, 1980

* Dolly Parton's "9 to 5" American comedy film 
* "Raging Bull" - Robert De Niro - Jake LaMotta 
* Grand Opening Day movie premiere advertisements

A terrific issue on the premieres of the motion picture hits "9 to 5" and "Raging Bull" and perhaps no better newspaper could be found than this, the leading newspaper from the home of the entertainment industry - the Hollywood area's prime publication. (see images)

Note: Where else might one find authentic, poster-size ads for Opening Day showings, in the most desirable Hollywood-area newspaper - as we were lucky enough to obtain this (and others) indirectly from the Los Angeles Times' own collection? It simply doesn't get any better! In over 40 years of collecting, we have yet to see such unique & dramatic coverage with truly top-shelf, eye-catching displayability (see images).

A quite rare issue as it would not have been saved since it contains no historically significant content. Present are the complete sections 1 and IV totaling 56 pages. Great condition.
