Softcover. Condizione: Very Good+. First Edition. [light external wear, faint uneven fading to covers, old bookseller's rubber stamp at bottom of title page (Larry Edmunds Cinema Bookshop)]. Trade PB (B&W photographs) INSCRIBED generically and SIGNED by the author at the upper right corner of the title page. Primarily a history of the Culver City, California, studio facility originally built by pioneer producer Thomas H. Ince in 1918/1919, but subsequently occupied (after Ince's death in 1925) by other producers and entities: first RKO Radio Pictures, then David O. Selznick (who employed its facade as the visual representation of his Selznick International Pictures), followed by RKO again, and then Desilu, after which it became an independent facility, rented by many different film companies, major and minor both. Parts of both GONE WITH THE WIND and CITIZEN KANE were shot at the studio (there is a chapter here devoted to each). The studio still operates today, with its facade largely unchanged but otherwise with much alteration (and the destruction of some of its more historical elements) in recent years. Signed by Author.…
