1948WRCLIT59079Los Angeles: RKO / National Screen Services 1948. Complete set of eight 11 x 14 inch color lobby cards. Small marginal mend on verso of card 6 a few minor marginal nicks minor soft creases to card 7 barely visible except on the blank verso light dust smudges to versos but a very good or better set. A complete set including the title card of the lobby cards promoting the 1948 U.S. release of the 1947 film adaptation of Steinbeck's novella. The film first released as LA PERLA was produced in Mexico by Film Asociados Mexico-Americanos in association with Ãguila Films and was directed by Emilio Fernandez who also collaborated with Steinbeck and Jack Wagner on the screenplay. Master of golden age Mexican cinema Gabriel Figueroa served as cinematographer and won a Golden Globe Award for his work on this film. Steinbeck's conception of THE PEARL as a cinematic vehicle from the start he discussed it as a film with Fernandez as early as 1941 and his active participation in its production make it of particular significance in the field of Steinbeck- related film.

1944WRCLIT60306Los Angeles: Paramount Pictures 1944. Two volumes each foliated in reel/page format as: 11097101110108 leaves. Quarto. Mimeographed typescript printed on rectos only. Second item stapled at left margin first formerly stapled. Some corner creases "Master File Copy" and production number stamps on title leaf of first item pencil annotations name and ink file number on title leaf of second. Very good. Two late production states of the script for the 1945 film based on a story idea by Jack Wagner cowritten with John Steinbeck and adapted as a screenplay by Frank Butler. The release dialogue script records a print totaling 51 more feet than the censorship script. Irving Pichel directed and Dorothy Lamour J. Carrol Naish and Arturo de Cordova led the cast. Obviously little apart from Steinbeck's treatment for the film the Valentine collection included a carbon typescript may be easily identified as purely Steinbeck's work; however nothing relating to the script saw lifetime publication so even continuity scripts such as these take on some significance for Steinbeck scholars.

1969125017Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company 1969. First edition of Galbraith's personal account of his tenure as the 7th United States Ambassador to India. Octavo original cloth illustrated. Association copy inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper in the year of publication "For Elaine Steinbeck with much love from John Galbraith - 1969." The recipient Elaine Steinbeck and her husband great American writer John Steinbeck first met Galbraith in the early 1950s while on a holiday on St. John in the Virgin Islands and he and John would exchange letters for years following this initial meeting. Although known for being an economist Galbraith had a background in agriculture majoring in animal husbandry and received his Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in agricultural economics from the University of California Berkeley so he was well acquainted with the issues that were brought to light in Steinbeck's novel The Grapes of Wrath. He and Steinbeck were both passionate about politics and worked together on Adlai Stevenson's presidential campaign. The Steinbecks attended JFK's inauguration with the Galbraiths and their discussions regarding JFK's inauguration speech were recorded on video as part of Robert Drew's documentary for ABC Close-up show called "Adventures on the New Frontier." Galbraith's works influenced many of Steinbeck's later books including Travels with Charley America and Americans and The Winter of our Discontent. From the library of John and Elaine Steinbeck. Very good in a very good dust jacket. A few days after the election in 1960 President Kennedy called Mr. Galbraith to tell him he was to be his Ambassador to India. As he tells here Mr. Galbraith decided that it would be an interesting time and resolved to keep a journal. So he did and this is it. Never before has there been such an expert account of exactly what an American ambassador does. The work remains one of the most readable and by all odds relaxed books on the Kennedy years.
