About this Item

A very interesting autobiography by Hollywood's best known gossip columnist, Hedda Hopper. She inscribed the book in blue ink on the front free endpaper, "To "Mary Peters"/ A grand lady who likes to read--/Bless you/Hedda Hopper." The book is bound in black paper boards with blue and gold titling on the spine. Overall, the book is in fine condition but for very slight cocking and very minor touches of wear on the page edges. The dustjacket is price-clipped and shows minor rubbing around the spine but overall a very sold nice dustjacket protected by an archival dustjacket. Although Hedda Hopper appeared in more than 120 movies, usually playing a society woman, she was best known as the hard-hitting and sometimes vicious gossip columnist for the Los Angeles Times who had along-running feud with Louella Parsons. Her trademark fashions included her large flamboyant hats. She was a staunch Republican and supported the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) hearings. It will be interesting to read this book and hear her side of things, don't you think? Near Fine in Archival Plastic Dustjacket. Seller Inventory # 4423
