Description

"Being the inside history of the peregrinations and vicissitudes of a filmscript and of Mr. Baldridge, its unfortunate author, and of his eventual recovery, new start in life, marriage and rise to a position of unprecedented public esteem in the administration of charities." In other words, a thoroughly entertaining satire of the film industry and the role of writers within it. Stock lightly toned, but otherwise all in good internal order bar a little minor spotting to endpapers. A couple of small marks to cloth, but reasonably smart. Second printing of first edition. This is a charity sale for Friends Of Morston Church (reg.1099831). 8vo. 544pp
