New York: Harpers, The Century Co., A.L Burt, Grosset & Dunlap , 1912. A wonderful collection of 11 Hollywood Association Copies. Rupert Hughes was the uncle of Howard Hughes and a prolific novelist, film director, and Oscar-nominated Hollywood screen writer. Will H. Hays managed Warren G. Hardings successful campaign for the Presidency of the U.S. and was subsequently appointed Postmaster General. After a year in that position, he resigned to become most famously known as the first President of Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA), which under his guidance published a blacklist of actors and workers studios should not hire, inserted moral clauses into actors' contracts, and published an informal list of suggested guidelines for film producers. When the Catholic Church formed its Legion of Decency and threatened nationwide boycotts of movies, Hays installed a more formal production code, called the Hays Code( later simply "The Code"), which became the virtual law of Hollywood until the 1960s. The 11 books are SIGNED AND INSCRIBED variously "To Will Hays...from his devoted friend...the eternal boy...from his devoted admirer...with the affection of...with the admiration of...with the high respect and warm friendship of..."etc. The 11 titles are : "The Last Rose of Summer" (Harpers, NY, 1914, 1st, NF/NF), "Clipped Wings" (Harpers, NY, later ptg., 1916, NF/NF) "What Will People Say?" (Harpers, NY, 1st, 1914, VG/None), "The Old Nest" ( Century Co, NY, 1st, 1912, VG/None), "The Lovely Ducklings" (A.L. Burt, NY, reprint, 1928, NF/NF), "The Lakerim Athletic Club"( Century Co., NY, reprint, 1925, NF/NF), "The Old Home Town"( A.L. Burt, NY, reprint, 1926, NF/NF), "In a Little Town" (A.L.
