réf. 6139The Forgotten Village Life in a Mexican Village Steinbeck John; Rosa Harvan Kline & Alexander Hackensmid. Published by The Viking press 1941. First Edition with "First Published in May 1941" on the copyright page. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; 143pp. with preface by Steinbeck and 136 photographs from the film of the same name by Rosa Harvan Kline and Alexander Hackenschmied. Buckram cloth boards with green illustration to front top edge green. In very good condition. The Forgotten Village is a 1940 documentary film for which Steinbeck wrote the screenplay; it was the first time Steinbeck had written directly for film. The story follows the coming of modern medicine to the natives of Mexico and is centered on a boy who detaches himself from a society dominated by superstitions. The boy comes to the realization that education is the only tool that can help break the wall of ignorance that separates the remote village from the rest of the world and can ultimately save the members of the small community from suffering and death. The people who appear in the film are actual peasants doctors and teachers not actors. Steinbeck and the film's director Herbert Kline insisted on paying the amateur Mexican actors a high wage thus angering their regular employers the farm owners who then tried to stop the filming until the richest owner gave his approval to the arrangement. The film was shot over a ten-month period in Mexico. The film was originally banned by censors because of scenes in which a mother breast-feeds her child and another in which a midwife is shown aiding a woman in childbirth. After the film's sponsors protested the censors' decision it was reversed by the State Board of Regents. Viking press, 1941 hardcover

Original cream buckram stamped and decorated in green top edges stained green; in the original color pictorial dust jacket with the $2.50 price intact and unclipped to the front flap. Goldstone & Payne A14a. "Second Printing Before Publication" stated on the copyright page — the state most copies bear printed before the official publication date and bibliographically equivalent to the first for collecting purposes; the work was published on the same day in Canada by Macmillan. Very good in a very good unclipped dust jacket: light foxing to the covers and offsetting to the inner covers; the jacket complete with wear and small chips to the spine ends and some darkening to the rear panel. Steinbeck wrote The Forgotten Village as the screenplay for Herbert Kline's 1941 docufiction film — a project he pursued specifically to make a picture outside the Hollywood studio system drawing on his deep engagement with Mexico. The film follows Juan Diego a boy in a remote mountain village as modern medicine arrives in conflict with traditional practice. Signed copies of The Forgotten Village are uncommon; the title-page signature here is clean and unobtrusive. SKU TO-2026-019 Viking hardcover
