1940WRCLIT77071Los Angeles: 2oth Century-Fox 1940. Five original 8 x 10" glossy b&w stills. Pencil numbers on two versos otherwise near fine. Thomas Hart Benton prepared several works as publicity pieces for John Ford's 1940 film version of Steinbeck's novel most famously a version of THE DEPARTURE OF THE JOADS that was incorporated in several of the differing styles of posters. He also prepared a series of portraits of the characters but these were not incorporated in the posters but rather utilized in the theatre program that was offered at the opening exhibitions of the film. They were also reproduced in the form of six stills according to the negative numbers - only five are present here evidently in very limited quantities as they are quite scarce. Apart from an appearance by this same group at auction in 2008 we've not encountered another. 2oth Century-Fox unknown books

Copy "M" folio size 60 pp. signed by Wallace Stegner and Karin Wikstrom. John Steinbeck 1902-1968 considered "a giant of American letters" was best known for his portrayals of families in California often exploring themes of alienation and injustice through "everyman" characters n. b. info from Wikipedia. "Flight" is a short story originally published in the collection "The Long Valley" on the subject of manhood as the protagonist Pepe strives to fill his father's place. While in town he kills a man and must fllee and his subsequent trials reveal that Pepe is not only "trying to live up to the foolish and romantic ideal of manhood common to his kind but is one of the incarnations of Everyman pursuing the ideals that foolish or not. . .in the end give him stature and dignity" per the afterword. <br/><br/>Wallace Stegner 1909-1993 provides an afterword for this edition.
