Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: fine. First edition. First printing. Fine in fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 338 pp. with index. Illustrated with photos. Biography of one of the most recognizable Black character actors og the first half of the 20th century, Lincoln Perry, known to audiences as his chatacter "Steppin Fetchit". A native of Key West, he ran away from home in his teens and found success in vaudeville before making his way to California. He became an iconic figure in American culture in the 1920s and 30s, both renwned and reviled for his portrayals of the era's most popular comic sterotype--the lazy, shiftless Negro. But his movie career (his breakthrogh role was in the 1929 "Hearts of Dixie") made him the first millionaire Black movie star. As he aged, however, his battles with movie producers, rowdy offscreen behavior, and extravagent spending hastened his decline and he was forced to declare bankruptcy in 1947. In 1964, he was discovered in a Chicago charity ward. Later he turned up in Muhammad Ali's entourage; in1972 he sued CBS for defamation because a TV program that ridiclued the type of characters he portrayed. It was not until the mid-1970s that his achievments were recognized with an NAACP Special Image Award and induction to the Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame. Perry died in 1985.
