About This Item
Paris: Rene Julliard, 1954. Paperback. Good. Wraps. From the library of Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. (1909-2000) -- an iconic American actor from Hollwood's Golden Era, and a highly decorated naval officer of World War II -- with his bookplate on the verso of the front flyleaf. Inscribed to him by Chevalier on the half-title page. His connection to Chevalier seems to be a long one: Fairbanks, Sr. (1883-1939) offered Chevalier a star billing with Mary Pickford, but Chevalier was hesitant to perform in a silent film. It is ilkely that their paths crossed often, as Chevalier (primarily associated with Paramount studios) and Fairbanks were part of a prolific and powerful Hollywood coterie, that included such giants as Charlie Chaplin and D. W. Griffith. Covers a little chipped at corners and along spine; leaves brittle, and mostly unopened.
