The inscription reads: "To Walter Seltzer / Producer of 'The Naked / Edge' - to whom I am / eternally grateful - for / liking this book enough, / and believing in it enough - / to put his own creative / blood and sweat into / it - not to mention / many long hours of / his time - / With thanks and / very warm regards - / Max."
