Gone With the Wind - By Margaret Mitchell

193613198JNew York: Macmillan 1936. First Edition First Issue. Signed by Margaret Mitchell on the flyleaf. Laid into the book is what is considered the finest Clark Gable letter extant an amazing reflection all about Gone With the Wind. Dated January 25 1960 it is a Typed Letter Signed in blue ink by Clark Gable on his printed stationery with the original stamped envelope which is written to the News Editor of the Atlanta Constitution newspaper Mr. Actor Cordell Jr. who had asked for Gableâ€™s remarks on Gone With the Wind twenty years after the release of the film classic and to which Clark Gable wrote this amazing response: "Dear Mr. Cordell: I have received your letter of December 29 and will answer your questions in the order which you ask them. - Yes it does seem like 20 years. - I feel about GONE WITH THE WIND as being one of the greatest pictures ever made not because I played a leading role in it but because of the great story the way the story was brought to the screen the production it received and because of its very fine cast. When I look at the picture now after 20 years I still feel it is one of the finest motion pictures ever made. - Yes I think Rhett Butler is my favorite role and I am associated more with GONE WITH THE WIND than with any of my other pictures. - As to suggestions for the casting of Rhett in the forthcoming stage musical this is a little out of my line. I am sure the producer and the director will be completely capable of finding a very fine Rhett Butler. - Of the late Margaret Mitchell I would like to say that in addition to writing a wonderful novel she was of great help to me before I started working in the picture advising me of the manner in which she thought I should attempt to portray Butler. I listened to her and followed her advice and fortunately for me everything she told me was right. Naturally she was the one to whom I went for advice because she was the one who had created the character. I am forever grateful to Margaret Mitchell. - Most sincerely Signed Clark Gable.â€ This letter was written shortly before Gable left to film his final motion picture the late masterwork The Misfits co-starring Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift directed by John Huston using an original screenplay by Monroeâ€™s husband Arthur Miller. Gable died in November a few days after shooting his last scene. This articulate and fascinating letter therefore remains his final observations about Gone With the Wind. The book itself is a near fine first edition in original cloth in a very good first issue dust jacket with some minor expert restoration by a paper conservationist. A truly historic piece enclosed in a very handsome custom morocco and cloth custom box. Macmillan hardcover

Selznick, David O [Margaret Mitchell]Biblio.com

Gone With the Wind Final Shooting Script.

1939152173Hollywood: Selznick International 1939. Rare final shooting script of the most celebrated film in Hollywood history a remarkable presentation copy inscribed by producer David O. Selznick to his special effects chief Jack Cosgrove in the year of the film's release. Quarto bound for Selznick in contemporary custom red half morocco for presentation with Cosgrove's name stamped in gilt on the front board and the spine with five raised bands lettered in gilt original yellow wrappers bound in titled "Gone With the Wind from the novel by Margaret Mitchell. Screen Play by Sidney Howard. Produced by David O. Selznick. Directed by Victor Fleming. Final Shooting Script January 24 1939" with six black-and-white movie stills inserted throughout - among them the burning of Atlanta the sequence that crowned Cosgrove's achievement. Presentation copy inscribed by Selznick on the first blank "For Jack who was always willing to try the impossible-and who always achieved it! With gratitude for a great job. DOS Xmas 1939." The recipient Jack Cosgrove was the leading special effects artist of Hollywood's golden age nominated for five Academy Awards over the course of his career for Gone With the Wind Rebecca The Pride of the Yankees Since You Went Away and Spellbound. Working day and night through the summer of 1939 Cosgrove and the assistants he supervised at Selznick International produced hundreds of the matte paintings - rendered on large glass panels and known on the lot as "Cosgrove shots" - that were combined with the live footage to create most of the film's panoramas of the antebellum South. It was his brush that conjured the great house at Tara the sweep of Twelve Oaks and the burning of Atlanta supplying the visual grandeur on which the film's epic scale depends. From the collection of Tony Grammy and Emmy Award-winning composer Charles Strouse and his wife choreographer Barbara Siman. Over his 50-year career Charles Strouse wrote the music for such iconic musical theater hits as Bye Bye Birdie Applause and Annie as well as the theme song for the classic sitcom All in the Family "Those Were the Days". His partnership with Martin Charnin on Annie produced one of Broadway's most successful scores ever with "Tomorrow" and other songs from the production becoming enduring American musical standards admired by generations. His reach knew no genre or generation - from a number-one Billboard hit in 1958 to Jay-Z's Grammy-winning sampling of "It's the Hard-Knock Life" four decades later - and his honors include three Tony Awards and induction into both the Songwriters and Theater Halls of Fame. In near fine condition rebacked. An extraordinary association copy uniting the producer of Gone With the Wind with the artist who painted its most unforgettable images. David O. Selznick’s production of Gone With the Wind directed by Victor Fleming from Sidney Howard’s screenplay of Margaret Mitchell’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel premiered in Atlanta in December 1939 and went on to win eight Academy Awards plus two honorary awards — including a posthumous Oscar for Howard’s screenplay the first ever awarded posthumously — and remains adjusted for inflation the highest-grossing film ever made. The final shooting script of January 24 1939 represents the text from which this monument of American cinema was filmed. Selznick had a small number of copies specially bound for presentation to key members of the cast and crew at Christmas 1939 each with the recipient’s name stamped in gilt and stills selected with the recipient in mind; they are today among the most coveted artifacts of Hollywood’s golden age.

Gibbon, Lewis Grassic [James Leslie Mitchell]Biblio.com

A Scots Quair Trilogy. Including: Sunset Song Cloud Howe and Grey Granite.

1932124744London: Jarrolds Publishers 1932-1934. First editions of each volume of Gibbon's classic trilogy describing the life of Chris Guthrie a woman from the north-east of Scotland during the early 20th century each volume inscribed by him to George Malcolm Thomson. Octavo original cloth 3 volumes. Sunset Song is inscribed on the title page "For G. Malcolm Thomson L. Grassic Gibbon." Cloud Howe is the dedication copy inscribed on the title page "For the 'dedicatee' with kind regards. L. Grassic Gibbon." Grey Granite is inscribed on the title page "For George Malcolm Thomson with good wishes L. Grassic Gibbon." Each are in very good condition. Rare and desirable signed and inscribed. A Scots Quair is revolutionary - innovative in its form deft and humorous in its use of language courageous in its characterization and politics. Central to the trilogy is Chris Guthrie one of the most remarkable female characters in modern literature. In Sunset Song Gibbon's finest achievement the reader follows Chris through her girlhood in a tight-knit Scottish farming community: the seasons the weddings the funerals the grind of work the gossip. As the Great War takes its toll machines replace the old way of life. Cloud Howe and Grey Granite take Chris from her rural homeland to life in an industrial Scotland and the desperate years of the Depression. Gibbon attracted attention from his earliest attempts at fiction notably from H. G. Wells but it was his trilogy entitled A Scots Quair and in particular its first book Sunset Song with which he made his mark. A Scots Quair with its combination of stream-of-consciousness lyrical use of dialect and social realism is considered to be among the defining works of the 20th century Scottish Renaissance. All three parts of the trilogy have been turned into serials by BBC Scotland written by Bill Craig with Vivien Heilbron as Chris. Additionally Sunset Song has been adapted into a film released in 2015. Jarrolds Publishers hardcover

Typed Letter Signed

1939600114<p>"Margaret" in black fountain pen ink on personal letterhead Atlanta May 3 1939. 4to 3 separate pages. To Mable and Edwin Granberry: " We have been in one of our hurricanes. It all started when Selznick at last announced Miss Vivien Leigh and things are just now quieting down." She then goes on to ponder an invitation to Long Beach New York. On page two she comments on that year's Pulitzer Prize-winner: "Of course you know about Marjorie Rawlings getting the Pulitzer award. There never was much doubt that she would get it if there was any justice anywhere.I do not know whether the award will keep her too busy to make this trip. The members of the Atlanta Women's Press Club have asked me to give a party for her should she come as they are all anxious to meet her." Mitchell closes with mention of the book which made her famous: "I was interested in your remarks about finding a GWTW mention in an article written by a Chinese. I did not see the article and if you have to or know who wrote it I'd be interested. As far as I know the book has not been done into Chinese.I am just learning now that it was published in Japan a year and half ago and that it has sold 150000 copies there. I will not get a cent from this because Japan has a treaty with the United States which gives them the right to translate and publish American books without paying royalties to the authors." Mitchell met Edwin Granberry when he wrote an early laudatory review of GWTW; he later interviewed her for his March 13 1937 article "The Private Life Of Margaret Mitchell." They became friends and frequent correspondents see Darden Pyron's "Southern Daughter" for numerous comments. Not in "GWTW Letters." Mitchell 1900-49 American writer; author of the 1936 Pulitzer Prize winning "Gone With the Wind" filmed by MGM in 1939 under directors George Cukor and Victor Fleming starring Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh.</p>
