‎Wives and Lovers Original screenplay for the 1963 film‎

‎Hollywood: Paramount Pictures 1963. Revised Final White script for the 1963 film. Copy belonging to a crew member presumed with annotations in holograph ink and pencil on both sides of the first page. <br/><br/>Based on a screenplay by Jacqueline "Jay" Presson Allen a romantic comedy about unsuccessful writer Bill Austin Johnson who lives in New York with his wife Bertie Leigh. Their lives change dramatically when Bill's first novel becomes a bestseller and he persuades Bertie to quit her job and move to the suburbs. Bill begins working long hours on Broadway adapting his novel for the theater and he spends more and more time with his attractive agent Lucinda Ford Hyer. Bertie is suspicious and begins courting actor Gar Aldrich Jeremy Slate. <br/> <br/>Set in New York shot on location in California. Edith Head was nominated for an Oscar for her costume designs. <br/><br/>Playwright and screenwriter Jay Allen was living in New York when she wrote the screenplay performing on radio and in cabaret both of which she loathed so much that she tried to get fired from nearly every production. After a long period of writer's block she started writing again and sold some of her work to live television programs like "The Philco Television Playhouse." When she married Lewis M. Allen in 1955 they moved to the countryside where Allen had a baby and spent two and a half "absolutely wonderful years in the country."<br/><br/>Eventually the couple came back to the city to work. Allen drew on her married life and wrote "The First Wife" a witty script about a suburban working couple. When Allen read Muriel Spark's "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie" she instantly saw the books potential for stage adaptation. After undergoing hypnotherapy to alleviate another bout of writer's block Allen produced a draft of the play in three days. <br/><br/>Allen's notable film credits as screenwriter include "Marnie" 1964 "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie" 1969 "Cabaret" 1972 "A Star Is Born" 1976 "Deathtrap" and "The Verdict" both 1982 and "Lord of the Flies" 1990. <br/><br/>Self wrappers noted as REVISED FINAL WHITE SCRIPT on the front wrapper rubber-stamped copy No. 107 and production No. 10228 dated February 1 1963 with a credit for screenwriter Anhalt.

Winner of the American Association of Law Libraries' 2017 Joseph L. Andrews Legal Literature Award. Elbridge T. Gerry 1837-1927 was a prominent and influential Gilded Age New York trial lawyer philanthropist and bibliophile whose 30000 volume library became the foundation of the United States Supreme Court Library. Grandson of Founding Father Elbridge Gerry who signed the Declaration of Independence Dowling's extensively illustrated biography of Gerry highlights the influence of his family and its links to other prominent New York families the Gallatins Goelets and Livingstons. This biography of Gerry is also the story of Gilded Age New York when the glamorous society balls that provided entertainment to wealthy New York families such as the Astors and Vanderbilts belied their philanthropic contributions in the Progressive era. Gerry built the first steam yacht the Electra which became the flagship of the New York Yacht Club while he also sat on hospital boards and founded the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children which still operates today. As Dowling shows Gerry's brilliance and passion was at the heart of it all. With this book SHELLEY L. DOWLING has won the Joseph L.

Granniss/Grolier Shelley 46. This copy has the distinction of being from the collection of Buxton Forman the famous editor of Shelley and Keats and the infamous creator of literary forgeries in partnership with Thomas Wise. The poem was first published with the title "Laon and Cythna; or The Revolution of the Golden City: A Vision of the Nineteenth Century" in 1817. Mary Shelley wrote of it: “He chose for his hero a youth nourished in dreams of liberty some of whose actions are in direct opposition to the opinions of the world but who is animated throughout by an ardent love of virtue and a resolution to confer the boons of political and intellectual freedom on his fellow-creatures. He created for this youth a woman such as he delighted to imagine—full of enthusiasm for the same objects; and they both with will unvanquished and the deepest sense of the justice of their cause met adversity and death.†Printed for John Brooks unknown books‎

Housed in the original fleece-lined beveled-edge brown cloth slipcase. A very fine copy.<br/><br/>Prometheus Unbound is a four-act lyrical drama by Percy Bysshe Shelley first published in 1820. It is concerned with the torments of the Greek mythological figure Prometheus who defies the gods and gives fire to humanity for which he is subjected to eternal punishment and suffering at the hands of Zeus. It is inspired by the classical Prometheia a trilogy of plays attributed to Aeschylus. Shelley's play concerns Prometheus' release from captivity but unlike Aeschylus' version there is no reconciliation between Prometheus and Jupiter Zeus. Instead Jupiter is abandoned by his supportive elements and falls from power which allows Prometheus to be released. Shelley's play is a closet drama meaning it was not intended to be produced on the stage. In the tradition of Romantic poetry Shelley wrote for the imagination intending his play's stage to reside in the imaginations of his readers. However the play is filled with suspense mystery and other dramatic effects that make it in theory performable.<br/><br/>"On 11 March 1818 the Shelleys and Claire left England to take Claire's daughter Allegra to her father Byron who had taken up residence in Venice.He then began the long verse drama Prometheus Unbound a re-writing of the lost play by the ancient Greek poet Aeschylus which features talking mountains and a petulant spirit who overthrows Jupiter. The Shelleys moved between various Italian cities during these years; in later 1818 they were living in Florence in a pensione on the Via Valfonda. Shelley completed Prometheus Unbound in Rome and he spent mid-1819 writing a tragedy The Cenci in Leghorn Livorno." Wikipedia.<br/><br/>Charles Robert Ashbee 1863-1942 was a British architect and designer who was a prime mover of the Arts and Crafts movement that took its craft ethic from the works of John Ruskin and its co-operative structure from the socialism of William Morris. Ashbee set up his Guild and School of Handicraft in 1888 in London while a resident at Toynbee Hall one of the original settlements set up to alleviate inner city poverty in this case in the slums of Whitechapel. The fledgling venture was first housed in temporary space but by 1890 had workshops at Essex House Mile End Road in the East End with a retail outlet in the heart of the West End in fashionable Brook Street Mayfair more accessible to the Guild's patrons. The School closed in 1895 which Ashbee blamed on "the failure of the Technical Education Board of the L.C.C. to keep its word with the School Committee and the impossibility of carrying on costly educational work in the teeth of state aided competition." The following year the L.C.C. opened the Central School of Arts and Crafts. In 1902 the Guild moved to Chipping Campden in the picturesque Cotswolds of Gloucestershire where a sympathetic community provided local patrons but where the market for craftsman-designed furniture and metalwork was saturated by 1905. He was a member of the Order of Chaeronea a secret society founded by penal reformer and poet George Cecil Ives in 1897 for the cultivation of a homosexual ethos. To conceal his sexuality at a time when homosexuality was illegal Ashbee married the accomplished musician Janet Forbes in 1898 and had a rather progressive atypical marriage resulting in four daughters. The pair wrote a collaborative journal and Janet became a valued member of the Arts and Crafts community embracing the wider socialist concepts of the movement by setting up a craft cooperative with her husband. Ashbee also espoused the work of Edward Carpenter philosopher of the simple life and early gay rights campaigner who he considered his mentor. V & A. <br/><br/>Marie-Louise Farge fl. 1890-1939 was quoted first by Crauzat as a young woman bookbinder and then by Fléty in the Decorators and Bookbinders section as an amateur who participated in exhibitions between 1890 and 1939 so we can conclude that Marie-Louise Farge was already active from 1925. In a 1937 issue of the journal Arts et Métiers Graphique Alphonse-Jules Gonon former publisher and having become a bookbinder himself we learn that Madame Farge does everything in her studio from papers to gilding. Her style elegantly combines a certain fin-de-siècle archaism with a very modern sensibility that perfectly suits this "lyrical drama".<br/> <br/>Tomkinson.
