About This Item
Berkeley, California: Frog, Ltd., 1996. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. From the library of Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., and inscribed to him by the author, "For Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Thank you for your help -- With Admiration and Gratitude, and In Memory of dear Marlene -- Eryk Hanut / May 96." Sir Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. (1909-2000) was an iconic American actor (credited with more than 50 films, including the starring role in Gunga Din), and a highly decorated naval officer of World War II. Dietrich sang "Song of Songs" opposite Fairbanks for Lux Radio Theatre in December 1937, though their personal and professional connections go much deeper than that. (They were lovers for a spell. Fairbanks admits in his memoir "A Hell of War" that she was "too sophisticated" for him.) A nice association copy, linking the two legends of Hollywood's Golden Era.
