Sobre este artículo
New York: George H. Doran Company, 1919. First Edition. Hardcover. Fair. New York: George H. Doran Company, 1919. 7 5/8 x 5 1/4 inches: pp. 149. Green cloth boards with oval photograph of author pasted down on front board and titles in black type.
Cover is spotted (loss of green overlay, biopredation to edges), especially on rear cover. Upper and lower edges of spine are worn and torn. Personal owner stamp inside front cover, name and date written on free facing end page. Scattered foxing. Text is unmarked. Binding solid.
Mayo was a actress, playwright and screenwriter and with her husband helped co-found Goldwyn Pictures and her play Polly of the Circus became the first film produced by the Goldwyn Company in 1917. This is her account of entertaining the troops in World War 1. Despite enormous success early on, she became interested in spiritualism and distanced herself from the entertainment industry. An unusual addition to a WW1 collection.
