1989664New York: E. P. Dutton. Very Good in Very Good dj. 1989. First Edition. Hardcover. light shelfwear one bent page corner; jacket a little rubbed but no tears or chips. A love story set against the backdrop of labor unrest and the early days of the motion picture industry in Los Angeles. Although this goes unmentioned in the jacket copy the author did her college dissertation on the history of Hollywood labor unions and is also the daughter of screenwriter Leopold Atlas whose notable credits included THE STORY OF G.I. JOE for which he received an Oscar nomination and who was blacklisted for his political affiliations until he bowed to pressure from HUAC and became a "friendly witness" not long before his death in 1954. In other words the vivid background of her novel is based on both in-depth research and personal knowledge. . E. P. Dutton hardcover books
1944WRCLIT68126Los Angeles: United Artists 1944. Vintage original color lithographed one sheet 27 x 41"; 68 x 102 cm. Folded as issue. Some use and nicks at edges three small old tape repairs to blank verso pinpricks in corners a couple small breaks at folds some annotations on verso otherwise a good or better visually quite presentable example. A vintage pictorial one sheet for this adaptation of the successful anti-Nazi stage play of the previous year by James Gow and Arnaud d'Usseau based on a collaborative screenplay by Ring Lardner Jr. at the time the most highly paid screenwriter in Hollywood and Leopold Atlas. Directed by Leslie Fenton starring Fredric March Betty Field Agnes Moorehead and reprising their stage roles Skippy Homeier and Edit Angold. The film is uncharacteristic for the time in its sympathetic portrayal of the German people victimized by the influence of Nazism. Apart from the title the pictorial presentation of the poster betrays little if any indication of the anti-Nazi theme. United Artists unknown books
