About This Item
Large Quarto. A FINE copy in a bright price-clipped very good dust wrapper. SIGNED AND DATED BY LILLIAN GISH TO THE OWNER OF THE BEVERLY HILLS HOTEL IN THE 1970s, WHO WAS A PERSONAL FRIEND OF GISH. The book is a lavish exploration of the careers of Lillian and Dorothy Gish told in pictures. This work came just four years after Lillian Gish published her official biography in 1969. A nice copy which includes a lovely vintage unreleased double weight semi-glossy 8x10 photo of Lillian Gish from the 1940s tipped in. The photographer, John Engstead, is credited on the rear reading "Engstead" and "not released" is written below the name. The photo is gorgeous and looks like the photo was taken around the time of Dual in the Sun (1946).
