Sobre este artículo
New York: Crown Publishers, Inc, 1953. Near fine in near fine jacket.. Scarce inscribed first edition of this hardboiled midcentury novel by the screenwriter and author of JOHNNY GUITAR and THE BALLAD OF CAT BALLOU. Chanslor's knowing novel of love and commerce is the tale of a man who has, in his own words, "written so many movies that when the chips are down he acts like a movie," and a valiant and professional Twentieth Century Wife doomed to lose at her own game to "a middle-aged child, the All-American male infant." As charming as possible, under the circumstances. 8.5'' x 5.5''. Original red cloth. In original unclipped ($3.00) pictorial dust jacket by Paul Galdone. 248 pages. Inscribed by Chanslor on front free endpaper: To Clarence / With best wishes, Roy Chancslor / 11/10/52, Encino, Calif." Boards scuffed at extremities; spine a bit sunned. Two ownership stamps to rear paste-down. Light chipping and a few tiny closed tears to jacket; minor soil to rear jacket panel.
