1943WRCLIT69634New York & n.p. 1943. Two pages octavo and one page quarto. Humphreys letter on two panels of a folded small quarto sheet of Hotel Salisbury letterhead; Flagg's on recto only of one sheet of quarto plain typing paper. Both show folds from having been mailed but very good. An exchange evidencing the probable end of a long friendship between film star Cecil Humphreys 1883 - 1947 THE ELUSIVE PIMPERNEL WUTHERING HEIGHTS THE RAZOR'S EDGE and the prominent American illustrator 1877 - 1960 a friendship which may have dated back to Flagg's association with Hollywood film projects in the years immediately following the Great War. Humphreys takes Flagg to task in response to an earlier letter that is not present writing in part: "On meeting a young friend of mine at the hospital you chose to stigmatize him as a 'pansy'! I assured you he was nothing of the sort. I have known the boy for some time - he was a great friend of my lad's in England - and anybody who knows my boy knows that he is not in the habit of associating with 'pansies' or their ilk! You hardly contribute to the saving of our unique friendship . When I make a friend I happen to be loyal to him - and I certainly will not allow you or anybody else to refer to . as 'a young squirt or a pansy'!!! I value your friendship as you know more than anything but it doesn't make me blind to several attributes that I deplore in you! . One - let me assure you I will not stand for - and that is the use of the word 'fk' - before ladies in my room and in my presence! You may describe this as 'British' - 'old-fashioned' - what you will - the fact remains. The first part of your letter is so blatently sic stupid that it calls for no comment! Yours Cecil." Flagg responds with vigor writing in part: "It's rather a pity you needed to drag in an irrelevancy - like my unfortunate lingual lapse - that vulgar four letter word so popular with your titled women! .Which leaves you with the calm satisfaction of an English gentleman who confines his bawdy brilliancies in the presence of women to 'pissed' and 'pooped' and 'bitch'!" Flagg continues aggressively for another 125 or so words taking both the recipient and to a certain extent British custom to task. He concludes: "So hail and farewell to a friendship that was charming while it lasted! I relinquish you to your REALLY 'blatantly stupid' friends! Monty." Flagg never known to practice restraint in his letters to friends and antagonists is in particularly rare form in this heated exchange. unknown books

Everything you always wanted to know and then some more and then some more after that about the husky darkly handsome actor who is best remembered for -- quick name a classic George Montgomery movie! betcha can't. Starting out as a stuntman in serials and B-westerns in the 1930s Montgomery had a decent if unspectacular career as a leading man during the 1940s and 1950s subsequently appearing in both movies and TV he starred in his own series "Cimarron City" in 1958/59 while also branching out into directing and writing. Offscreen he was quite the accomplished fellow showing real talent as a painter sculptor and furniture craftsman -- all of which activities are extensively showcased within this elaborately-produced tome along with a full treatment of his career in movies on TV and on the stage. There's also quite a bit on his art collection -- apart from the art he created himself -- including mini-biographies of a number of the artists whose work he collected.
