Ryan went on to write for Hollywood films from the 20s into the 1940s.

HOLLYWOOD NOVELS. ALLEN JANE
I Lost My Girlish Laughter
London: Faber and Faber 1938. First Edition - British. A used and handled copy with some tape marks at the endpapers a bit of fading to the cloth at the spine some rubbing and a few tiny edge tears without dust jacket. A classic Hollywood novel published under the pseudonym of Jane Shore and Silvia Schulman who had been employed as a personal secretary to famed producer David O. Selznick in the mid-1930’s but had left her position to marry screenwriter Ring Lardner Jr. from whom she divorced in 1945. The narrative of the story is obviously based on Schulman’s experiences as an innocent in Hollywood and her adventures with Selznick and Lardner. It was no secret that Selznick was outraged by the book’s publication and tried unsuccessfully to prevent Orson Welles from adapting it for broadcast on January 27 1939 on the CBS radio program Campbell Playhouse.

HOLLYWOOD NOVELS. GRAHAM CARROLL & GARRETT
Queer People
New York: Vanguard Press 1930. First Edition First Printing. A few small aging spots to cloth otherwise very good plus in a very good dust jacket with a few tiny chips and tears. Notoriously rare in dust jacket. The front cover colorful artwork depicts a scantily clad beautiful actress posed in recline on a film set with a director and film crew photographing her. Queer People is considered one of the true landmarks in the continuous evolution of the Hollywood novel. The novel’s take of the bizarre and seamy side of the life of Hollywood during its golden age is like no other work of fiction. In the 1976 reprint edition Budd Schulberg wrote “.in Queer People we have if not THE Hollywood novel - at least a truly seminal work on Hollywood in which may be found the seeds of at least three of the longer-lived Hollywood novels The Day of the Locust What Makes Sammy Run and The Last Tycoon.†The book was a scandalous sensation when published and went through numerous printings very quickly. At publication multi-millionaire film producer Howard Hughes bought the film rights to the novel. He hired Leo McCarey to direct and Ben Hecht to write the screenplay. Hughes biggest problem turned out to be that stars were extremely reluctant to appear in a film that attacked the Hollywood studio system. Hughes initially wanted to cast Jack Oakie and William Haines but Paramount and MGM refused to loan them out. Unable to secure a significant cast Hughes ended the production after spending over $100000 of 1930s dollars in its preparation. Vanguard Press hardcover books

Hollywood on Trial First Edition inscribed by Paul Robeson in the year of publication
New York: Boni and Gaer 1948. First edition. INSCRIBED by actor Paul Robeson in the year of publication on the front endpaper: "All best wishes / and thanks / Paul Robeson / April 28 1948."<br/><br/>Many African-American witnesses subpoenaed to testify at the House Committee on Un-American Activities HUAC hearings in the 1950s were asked to denounce Paul Robeson 1888-1976 in order to retain future employment. Robeson an All-American football player and recipient of a Phi Beta Kappa key at Rutgers received a law degree at Columbia. He became an internationally acclaimed concert performer and actor as well as a persuasive political speaker. <br/><br/>In 1949 Robeson was the subject of controversy after newspapers reports of public statements that African Americans would not fight in "an imperialist war." In 1950 his passport was revoked. Several years later Robeson refused to sign an affidavit stating that he was not a Communist and initiated an unsuccessful lawsuit. In the following testimony to a HUAC hearing ostensibly convened to gain information regarding his passport suit Robeson refused to answer questions concerning his political activities and lectured bigoted Committee member Gordon H. Scherer and chairman Francis E.Walter on African-American history and civil rights leading to the now historic statement: "You are the Un-Americans and you ought to be ashamed of yourselves."<br/><br/>Nearly ten years later in 1958 the Supreme Court ruled that a citizen's right to travel could not be taken away without due process and Robeson' passport was returned. <br/><br/>Near Fine in a bright Very Good plus dust jacket. <br/><br/>Bentley p. 770.

Witzel Studios was founded in Los Angeles by photographer Albert Walter Witzel 1879-1929 in 1909 and became one of the foremost portrait studios in demand from Hollywood studios who needed publicity images of their stars. Witzel's photographic style using dramatic poses and atmospheric lighting set the standard for Hollywood studio photography. These portraits were taken at its height; the firm folded in 1929. Ivy Lever the young Australian girl who assembled this album received one especially kind signed photograph from the child star Madge Evans who addresses the photograph to "my first Australian friend" and who writes on the verso that she plans to come to Melbourne to visit relatives there including her mother's uncle a Francis Hatton.
