A Vintage Autographed Hardcover Book (measures 6 1/2" x 9 1/2" [17 x 24 cm]; 240 pages) (Learn More) Roger Corman was a legendary director and producer of B-movies from the 1950s to the 2020s. He made some of the most important B-movies of the 1950s and 1960s, and launched the careers of many future stars, including most notably Jack Nicholson, and he also hired top stars of the 1930s whose careers were on the decline, like Boris Karloff! He was legendary for making his movies in incredibly short amounts of time, sometimes a matter of days, and therefore, they all made money (especially since much of the crew worked on a volunteer basis, to gain experience). Some of his films include: Bloody Mama, The Wasp Woman, The Day the World Ended, It Conquered the World, Not of This Earth, Attack of the Crab Monsters, Rock All Night, Machine-Gun Kelly, and many more. He passed away in 2024 at the age of 98 Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by Roger Corman! Note that we have pictured the front cover, the back cover, the title page, and the interior page that shows the publishing information, and one or more interior 2-page spreads. Note that this item was consigned to us by an individual who owned a company that made movies and videos with famous celebrities in the 1980s and 1990s. The owner of the company would have the celebrities sign items from their famous films, and he also had correspondence with many famous celebrities which he saved. In addition, he would sometimes ask celebrities he came in contact with if they had signed items from other stars that they would sell to him, and he purchased a number of items that way. He also would purchase unsigned items from the famed Larry Edmunds Bookshop in Los Angeles or from other reputable Hollywood book stores and poster shops (to have the celebrities sign), and while he was doing that he would also purchase some of their signed items. So all of these autographed items we are auctioning were either obtained in person, obtained from celebrities who obtained them in person, or obtained from reputable Hollywood book stores, and we feel certain that the autograph(s) on this item is authentic! Condition: very good. There is scuffing on the dust jacket. The dust jacket is in a protective sleeve. Learn More about condition grades
