Description:
Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall, 1959. First Edition. Hardcover. Good/Very good-. Octavo, 271pp., illustrated. Presumed first printing, with no subsequent printings stated, and no printing statement on the dust jacket (later printings were stated near the printed price). A good or better copy in the publisher's pink cloth. Rather frequent underlining in blue pen throughout, but still a perfectly readable copy. Small stain on the rear gutter. In a nearly very good dust jacket, chipped and creased, with some clear tape repairs to verso, and rubbing to the panels. This copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by West on the front free endpaper: "[For?] Frank Rasky. Hope you enjoy my demonstrative and very Progressive education." Rasky was a Toronto-based writer, journalist, and editor, who covered show business and entertainment beat for several Canadian newspapers. We presume that the internal markings are his.

Description:
Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall, Inc, 1959. First edition of Mae West's autobiography. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "To Bill with heartfelt and deep admiration for all the things we've shared - Mae - Come on up and..." Very good in a very good dust jacket. Mae West, known in her prime as Diamond Lil, was an actress, singer, and playwright known for her risque style. Often clashing with conventional social mores, West worked in vaudeville acts in New York before moving to Los Angeles to enter the film industry. Amidst the controversies she stirred up by her shows, she quipped "I believe in censorship. I made a fortune out of it." West reflects here on nearly 50 years of her life as a performer.
