Hard Cover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Photographs (illustrator). First Edition. Covers the years 1897-1929, listing producers, casts, directors, and plot summaries. This copy includes a photocopy of a letter from a fan to Forrest Ackerman. Signed by Ackerman (as "4e", one of his fannish nicknames) in red marker pen on the front free endpaper. If you can make out who it's inscribed to, you're better at decipherment than we are! Corners somewhat bumped; closed tear on back jacket flap. Jacket is unclipped.
