About this Item

SIGNED AND INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR on front end page - " Pour Monsieur Will H. Hays .". ( see pictures). Edouard Herriot was a French statesman and man of letters who was the longtime leader of the Radical Party, serving in nine different cabinets and he was the Premier of France three times (1924-25, 1926, 1932). Will H. Hays managed Warren G. Hardings successful campaign for the Presidency of the U.S. and was subsequently appointed Postmaster General. After a year in that position, he resigned to become most famously known as the first President of Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA), which under his guidance published a blacklist of actors and workers studios should not hire, inserted moral clauses into actors' contracts, and published an informal list of suggested guidelines for film producers. Book is Very Good, text block separating from front of wrappers and a bit of minor paper loss at edges of wrappers. Most pages are uncut. Text in French. A quite intriguing Association Copy. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
