I have only sold one, and it went for $83. I put it as R60s (because there is *NO PRAYER* it is from 1938), and wrote this:
*Note that we have never before auctioned this pressbook, which is very mysterious. It has all the information and ads for the 1938 double-bill, but the paper it is printed on is much newer than 1938, probably 1960s or so. So we are putting 1960s on this, but we don't know anymore, and even that is a guess. Perhaps someone made this as a tribute. Please do not bid on this item unless you can accept all these uncertainties.
