Add to basketMagazine. Condition: Very Good. (Vol. II, No. 5). [a decent, clean copy, with some browning at the edges]. The lead article in this issue is "Just What is A.A.A.?" by James M. Cain. Well, it was the American Authors' Authority, a concept that was being pushed hard by Cain and others at the time; it proposed setting up a central…copyright repository that would cover all professional writers -- novelists, playwrights, poets and screenwriters -- to improve their bargaining position with publishers and producers, track rights and royalties (like ASCAP does for music), represent writers in legal disputes, and lobby for more favorable copyright and tax legislation. Not surprisingly, it ignited a firestorm of opposition from both inside and outside the literary world (with some politicians, in a presaging of the HUAC hearings, claiming that it was a commie plot), and had been shot down by the end of 1946. Also in this issue: "SWG -- Trade Union or Writers' Protective Association?" by Philip Dunne; "Want to Buy the Brooklyn Bridge?" by Howard Dimsdale & Guy Endore, a discussion of the concept of public domain; "Problems of the Outdoor Action Writer," by Jack Natteford & Luci Ward; "Re: ' Coming of Age '," by Lester Cole, a response to an earlier article by screenwriter Mary McCall Jr., hashing over some of the controversies about screenwriters' wage scales during the formation and early years of the SWG; "Opinion and the Motion Picture," by Richard G. Hubler. The "Editorial" section discusses the AAA situation, ending with the Executive Board's promise "to keep you informed on the more sprightly and imaginative of the current rumors in forthcoming issues of this magazine." Under the heading "S.W.G. Bulletin" is the text of a couple of resolutions passed by the Guild related to the then-current Hollywood labor dispute, and the ttext of a press release about the Authors' League and the AAA. There is also an extensive section of excerpts from the press regarding the AAA controversy.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Very Good dj. First Edition. (price-clipped) [some discoloration to front endpapers from laid-in newspaper clippings, minor soiling to bottom of text block, slight fading to cloth at top of spine; jacket shows some modest surface- and edgewear, a little dog-earing at base of spine, short closed t…ear at bottom of rear panel, one teensy-tiny nick at top right corner of front panel, spine a bit color-shifted]. SIGNED boldly by Trumbo (no inscription) on the half-title page. Twenty years' worth of letters from the most famous of the blacklisted Hollywood writers to his family, fellow writers, business associates, friends and enemies. Whatever one's estimation of Trumbo -- politically, or as a screenwriter, or as a human being -- it's an undeniable fact that he was a terrific letter-writer, as this volume amply demonstrates. (And they are all his letters: no replies or exchanges of correspondence. It's all Trumbo, all the time.) ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** Signed by Author.
