Seller's Description:
Very Good Plus. A very nice copy of the First Printing Nelson's important book. Nelson's signature is tipped in on the first free endpaper. A letter from Nelson is tipped in on the second free endpaper. The letter is typed on the letterhead of the Society of Independent Motion Picture Producers ( Nelson was President ) and signed in ink by Nelson. In the letter Nelson acknowledges that he had trouble in Washington with Clay, Patterson and Somervell. He places all of the blame for his troubles with the three men on Somervell. He notes that in the final draft of his manuscript for this book he softened his treatment of Somervell because the book was to be a history and " not vitriolic ". This is a very remarkable letter. The textblock of the book is clean, no marks of any kind. The cloth on the boards is clean and the graphics on the spine are bright.
