Perfidy
New York: Julian Messner Inc. Good. 1961. Third Printing. Hardcover. "In my own time governments have taken the place of people. They have also taken the place of God. I have written chiefly of one government in this book - that of the new Jewish state of Israel. I am a Jew. I come of a long never-broken line of Jews. They did well by the world. What happened to this fine heritage when the Jews finally fashioned a government of their own in Israel What happened to Jews when they became Jewish politicians What happened to a piety a sense of honor and a brotherly love that 2500 years of anti-semitism were unable to disturb in the Jewish soul My answers are in this book." - Preface. "Describes events surrounding the 1954-1955 Kastner trial in Jerusalem. Based on trial transcripts Hecht concludes that in 1944 Rudolf Kastner a member of David Ben Gurion's Mapai Party deliberately withheld from Hungarian Jews knowledge that the trains Nazis were putting them on were taking them to die not to a fictitious resettlement city as the Nazis claimed and that Kastner lied about it under oath." - Wikipedia. "A devastating account." - E. Jager Jerusalem Post 2007. "Ben Hecht 1894-1964 was an American screenwriter director producer playwright journalist and novelist. A journalist in his youth he went on to write 35 books and some of the most enjoyed screenplays and plays in America." - Wikipedia. vi 281 pp. Extensive footnotes.

Hecht, Ben (stories); commentary and book by Florice Whyte Kovan
Rediscovering Ben Hecht Volume II: Art & Architecture on 1001 Afternoons in Chicago limited/numbered edition
Washington DC: Snickersee Press. Near Fine. 2002. Limited/Numbered Edition. Hardcover. plastic-comb binding with wraparound illustrated boards; no dust jacket as issued nice copy as-new except for a tiny circle of indentations on the front cover. B&W photographs facsimiles A collection of long out-of-print pieces by Hecht assembled within a kind of artist's-book format with numerous illustrations many of which are glued in by hand they are referred to by the publisher as "color appliques" and were replaced in later editions with printed versions; a few are printed on clear mylar. Artists and illustrators whose work is reproduced include Herman Rosse Frank Charles Peyraud Wallace Smith George Grosz and Jerome Blum; there is also some biographical information about Rosse and Grosz. Per the limitation page this is one of "75 copies of which this is Number 3. Numbers 1-24 comprise a uniform edition after which there will be a color change on the inner cover." Two NOTES: 1 the leaf containing pages 63/64 is bound in upside down; 2 the publication information refers to a "hand-painted frontispiece by Sheila Crider" but in the acknowledgements it's referred to as "our exuberant cover of Sheila Crider's paint on hand made paper"; it is quite clearly the latter not a pictorial "frontispiece" as that term is generally understood; at any rate it's very nice -- but it's the inner cover not the outer cover and is positioned beneath a clear mylar page on which the title of the volume is printed. .

HECHT, Ben
Spellbound.
No place: no publisher 29 June 1944. There are almost a million people in the United States who live in hospitals. for the mentally deranged Screenplay for Hitchcock's psychological thriller starring Ingrid Bergman and Gregory Peck released in 1944 to significant acclaim. The present script presents a version of the text featuring many revised sheets from the time that the screenplay was submitted for approval to the Motion Picture Association of America. The film is based on the 1927 novel by John Palmer and Hilary A. Saunders under the pseudonym Francis Beeding entitled The House of Dr. Edwardes. The script notes "'Spellbound' The House of Dr Edwardes" on the first leaf. The first page of text has the novel's title struck through and replaced by the title of the film. Hitchcock and his wife began working on a treatment of the novel in December 1943. Hitchcock hired Angus MacPhail to help a month later and Ben Hecht then wrote the screenplay. The opening titles of the film credit the screenplay by Hecht with "adaptation by" MacPhail. The present script includes revised leaves dated 7 July 44 pink leaves 10 July 2 pink and 2 yellow leaves 11 July 1 pink and 7 yellow leaves 12 July 3 pink and 3 yellow leaves 17 July 2 pink and 4 yellow leaves 25 July 4 pink and 3 yellow leaves 27 July 5 pink 13 yellow and 2 green leaves and 1 August 2 pink and 1 yellow leaves. "Hitchcock's Spellbound. was the director's most overt handling of psychological subject matter up to that time. Largely based on the theories of famed psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud and featuring a stunning set of dream sequences designed by the world's most renowned surrealist painter Salvador Dali Spellbound in many ways marked a new trajectory in Hitchcock's career" Cunningham. Folio. Mimeographic typescript 154 leaves 280 x 216 mm printed on rectos only of white pink yellow and green paper pagination includes "16-17" "31A" "75A-76" "94-95" "139-140" "144-145" and "152-153" first leaf notes "Please return to Vanguard Films Inc." script no 1699 and date. Rear blue wrapper three split pins. Housed in a custom black cloth box. Lacking front wrapper rear worn with loss and adhesive tape repairs first leaf of screenplay worn with minor loss not affecting text: a very good copy. Douglas A.
