Laura

CASPARY, Vera

Verlag: Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston, 1943

First edition. A bit cocked, small tears and light fraying at the crown, a good copy in a price-clipped good later-issue dust jacket which is sunned at the spine and has some chipping on the front panel. An exceptional association copy, Inscribed by Caspary in the year of publication to George and Miriam Sklar: "For Miriam and George - who feed and shelter me, sympathize with me in my worst moods, listen to my beefs, and still collaborate. With my best, first-class, grade-A love - Vera Jan. 21, 1943." The Sklars were very close to Caspary. George Sklar was a leftist playwright and novelist and the co-author with Caspary of the play adaptation of *Laura,* as well as several other plays. One of the scarcest film source books, basis for the classic 1944 film directed by Otto Preminger and Rouben Mamoulian and starring Gene Tierney, Dana Andrews, Vincent Price, and Clifton Webb. One of the only significant association copies we've seen offered for sale. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 414774
