About This Item
New York: St. Martin's Press. Very Good+ in Very Good+ dj. 2002. First Edition. Hardcover. [light shelfwear, top corners bumped; jacket a bit scuffed (mostly on rear panel), with minor edgewear]. (B&W photographs) Intelligent, well-researched biography of the silent-screen matinee idol, "the first Latin American performer to become a Hollywood superstar," whose professional legacy has unfortunately been obscured by the sensational circumstances of his tragic murder in 1968, and the consequent revelation of his homosexuality, which had been carefully concealed from the public throughout his career. ****NOTE that an additional shipping fee will be requested for international shipping of this moderately heavy book, or for Priority Mail service to U.S. destinations.
