About This Item
Grosset & Dunlap, ( 1929). First edition. Photoplay edition. Hardcover. Good. 12mo, red cloth, small tear at head of spine
"Perhaps this interest in Native American life and the Western vista informed her screenwriters vision of the fiction feature film Redskin, produced and distributed by Paramount Famous Lasky and directed by Victor Schertzinger in 1929. An excellent quality color 35mm print of Redskin, however, survives, and a contemporary revival at the Giornate del Cinema Muto in Pordenone, Italy, allowed film historians to rediscover this late silent era example of what might be called an ethnographic Westernpart documentary of the lives of Pueblo dwellers and part narrative fiction - Michelle Koerner." 5 plates, including a portrait of J. S. Zamencik, who scored the fllm.

About Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975.

Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
