195721192New York: Ives Washburn Inc. Very Good in Very Good dj. 1957. First American Edition. Hardcover. spine slightly turned a little wear to top and bottom edges of covers age-toning and minor soiling to edges of text block; jacket slightly chipped with old small internal tape repairs at spine ends no impact on text faint almost invisible vertical crease in spine light soiling to rear panel a couple of tiny nicks in bottom edge of rear panel. Yep it's the book from which Alfred Hitchcock's VERTIGO -- anointed The Greatest Film of All Time by the British Film Institute's "Sight and Sound" panelists' poll -- was rather freely adapted. It's a must-have if you're a "books into film" collector and considerably scarcer for some reason in the American edition than in the British which preceded it by a year -- although if you're into that "true first edition" business you really ought to be on the lookout for the French paperback original Denoël 1954 entitled "D'entre les morts" literally "From the Dead." And if you think this one's expensive prepare yourself for serious sticker shock if you happen to find that one. . Ives Washburn, Inc. hardcover
