SHATNER, WILLIAM
LEONARD - My Fifty-Year Friendship with a Remarkable Man Signed by William Shatner
New York: Thomas Dunne Books 2016. Book. New. Hardcover. Signed by Authors. 1st Edition. Hardcover - 2nd. Print - Inscribed by William Shatner on title page - Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner first crossed paths as actors on the set of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Little did they know that their next roles as Spock and Captain Kirk in a new science fiction television series would shape their lives in ways no one could have anticipated. In seventy-nine television episodes of Star Trek and six feature films they grew to know each other more than most friends could ever imagine. Over the course of half a century Shatner and Nimoy saw each other through personal and professional highs and lows. In this powerfully emotional book Shatner tells the story of a man who was his friend for five decades recounting anecdotes and untold stories of their lives on and off set as well as gathering stories from others who knew Nimoy well to present a full picture of a rich life. As much a biography of Nimoy as a story of their friendship Leonard is a uniquely heartfelt book written by one legendary actor in celebration of another. Thomas Dunne Books Hardcover

CHRISTOPHER LEE : The Authorised Screen History Signed by Christopher Lee
Surrrey UK: Reynolds & Hearn Ltd. 2001. Book. As New. Trade Paperback. Signed by Authors. 1st Edition. Trade Paperback - 2nd. Print - Inscribed "Scott from Christopher Lee" on title page - AS NEW - For many years the name Christopher Lee was virtually synonymous with the best in screen horror. His Count Dracula has rarely been equaled and his performances in classics like The Mummy The Face of Fu Manchu and The Wicker Man are just as striking. Lee¹s film and television appearances however outnumber those of any other British star and his work stretches well beyond the conÞnes of Hammer Horror. Christopher Lee: The Authorized Screen History is the best book to chronicle the actor¹s entire career including his starring role as James Bond¹s nemesis in The Man With the Golden Gun and appearances in The Lord of the Rings and Star Wars Episode II. Compiled with the cooperation of Christopher Lee and featuring many previously unseen photos from his private collection this is the ultimate guide to one of the cinema¹s last true icons. .

McClung, Nellie
Tea With The Queen
Vancouver: Intermedia Press Limited 1980. Hardcover. pp. 69. 8vo. Bound in tan cloth with black lettring to spine. Ex library: rubber stamp to a few spots sticker ghost and marker line to rear board; very good-.
