Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fair dj. First Edition. [ex-rental library book ("Boulevard Book Shop" stamped on front pastedown, handwritten circulation slip on rear endpaper), the book itself only moderately worn; the jacket, however, is firmly affixed to the book at both flaps, has been unevenly trimmed by about 1/8"-1/4" along the bottom edge, and has suffered some paper loss to the upper spine extremities and the top right corner of the front panel]. The only published novel by this noted screenwriting team, a legendary (though now largely forgotten) duo who were the epitome of the fast-thinking, seat-of-the-pants story-pitchers of Hollywood lore. (They're acknowledged to have been the models for the leading characters in Samuel and Bella Spewack's 1936 play "Boy Meets Girl," which was filmed by Warner Bros. in 1938.) Jones, the more colorful and voluble of the pair, came to Hollywood from his native Terre Haute, Indiana, in 1915, with the modest amibition of becoming a sign painter for the movies; he worked his way up through the ranks as a gag man, writer and director of short comedies, and eventually became one of the most prolific (and highly-salaried) screenwriters at the Paramount studio. (It was there that he teamed up with the wonderfully-named McNutt.) Jones was also a prolific writer of magazine fiction, and for a couple of years in the late 1930s published his own magazine (called Jones'), which he printed himself on a linotype machine installed at his home in Pacific Palisades. Jones and McNutt did their last work for Paramount in 1935, and I half suspect that this book, an anomaly in their otherwise exclusively-screenwritten joint oeuvre, might well have been an unrealized movie treatment that Jones decided to rework as a novel following McNutt's death in January 1938. It's kind of an epic "of the days when the West was golden and an empire was to be had for the taking," with the central conflict involving two competing larger-than-life figures: the cattle baron "Roarin' Bill" Holliday and the railroad-building mogul Carter Harrington, who wants "to thrust the railroad's metal straight into the heart of Holliday's domain." It's interesting to note a couple of Hollywood happenings concurrent with the publication of this novel: one was the production (at Paramount, ironically) of Cecil B. DeMille's railroad-building epic UNION PACIFIC (which, if my surmise about the origins of this book is correct, may well be the reason that it never got off the ground as a movie, i.e. Hollywood wasn't big enough for more than one railroad-themed film at a time); the other was the fact that about this time, Jones was engaged in crafting the early treatments and drafts of a very different kind of Western yarn, the W.C. Fields-Mae West co-starring venture at Universal, MY LITTLE CHICKADEE. So one way or another, Jones would have had the Old West on his brain for much of 1939. (And sadly, by the end of the following year he too would be dead, at the age of 46.).

William Grover Jones was a Journalist and political staff member. Born- Apr. 24, 1922, Woodville, Ala. Education- University of Alabama, A.B., 1943. U.S. Army, 1942-1945; newspaper reporter and editor; wrote for several Alabama papers; owner of the Walker County Times, 1945-1960; printing and supply business, 1960-1963; administrative aide to U.S. Representative Carl Elliott, 1955-56.

Owned and operated Viewpoint Publications, publisher of Alabama and Georgia History textbooks, after 1967; Viewpoint Enterprises, a political consulting firm. Died January 23, 2015. George Corley Wallace Jr. (August 25, 1919 - September 13, 1998) was an American politician who served as the 45th governor of Alabama for four terms. He is notoriously remembered for his staunch segregationist and populist views. During Wallace's tenure as governor of Alabama, he promoted "industrial development, low taxes, and trade schools." Wallace sought the United States presidency as a Democratic Party candidate three times, and once as an American Independent Party candidate, being unsuccessful each time. Wallace opposed desegregation and supported the policies of "Jim Crow", declaring in his 1963 inaugural address that he stood for "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." Wallace challenged sitting president Lyndon B. Johnson in the 1964 Democratic presidential primaries, but Johnson prevailed in the race. In the 1968 presidential election, Wallace ran a third-party campaign in an attempt to force a contingent election in the United States House of Representatives, thereby enhancing the political clout of segregationist Southern leaders. Wallace won five Southern states but failed to force a contingent election. As of the 2020 election, he remains the most recent third-party candidate to receive pledged electoral college votes from any state. Wallace won election to the governorship again in 1970, and ran in the 1972 Democratic presidential primaries, having moderated his stance on segregation. His campaign effectively ended when he was shot in Maryland by Arthur Bremer, and Wallace remained paralyzed below the waist for the rest of his life. Wallace won re-election as governor in 1974, and he once again unsuccessfully sought the Democratic presidential nomination in the 1976 Democratic presidential primaries. In the late 1970s, Wallace announced that he became a born-again Christian, and moderated his views on race, renouncing his past support for segregation. Wallace left office in 1979, but re-entered politics and won election to a fourth, and final, term as governor in 1982. Wallace is the third longest-serving governor in U.S. history, having served 5,848 days in office. His impact on American politics was enormous and earned him the appellation "the most influential loser" in 20th century American politics, according to biographers Dan T. Carter and Stephan Lesher.

Lacking the original illustrated paper slipcase. Housed in a custom clamshell box and matching chemise. A penetrating, satirical take on the film industry, illustrated throughout with black-and-white photographs. Gene Fowler was an American author, dramatist, and screenwriter who enjoyed a long and varied career. Fowler found early prestige as a journalist in New York, most notably a lengthy tenure as a managing editor of The Morning Telegraph, where his staff included a number of luminaries of the period, including Ben Hecht, Ring Lardner, Charles MacArthur, Westbrook Pegler, Martha Ostenso, Walter Winchell, Nellie Revell, among others. Fowler also worked as a screenwriter for several years, penning a dozen screenplays in the 1930s and early 1940s, including "What Price Hollywood?" (1932), "The Call of the Wild" (1935), and "Billy the Kid" (1941), and also collaborated with Ben Hecht on the 1932 Broadway play "The Great Magoo."

Final White Draft script for the 1930 film. Studio file copy, rubber-stamped on the front wrapper. Based on Joseph Conrad's 1915 novel, "Victory," the second of ten feature adaptations, preceded by Maurice Tourneur's 1919 film. Heyst (Arlen) is a hermit on an island who offers shelter to a redhead named Alma (Carroll), and the two live somewhat harmoniously.

Based on a short story entitled "Don't Call Me Madame," by Rupert Hughes, about Tillie and Gus Winterbottom (Alisone Skipworth and W. C. Fields) and their tribulations involving a deceased family member's inheritance. Even with the ensuing events, including a riverboat race and a baby-toting bathtub that floats downstream reminiscent of Moses in a basket, the film is remembered as one of Fields' "sleepers," one less punchy than others. "Tillie and Gus" was one of three pairings of Skipworth and Fields, the others being "Six of a Kind" (1934) and "If I Had a Million" (1932).
