A Vintage Autographed Softcover Book (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm]; 233 pages) (Learn More) Robert Wise was a legendary producer and director from the 1940s to the 2000s. Some of his movies include: I Want To Live (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film), The Body Snatcher, The Set-Up, The Day the Earth Stood Still, The Sound of Music, and Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Not only did Mr. Wise work over many decades, but he worked in many different genres, and he excelled at all of them, something unusual for a top director! He passed away in 2005 at the age of 91. Important Added Info: Note that this book has been personally autographed (signed) by Robert Wise on the first title page! Note that this book (and 46 other autographed books we are currently auctioning in separate auctions) was consigned to us by a very longtime collector of rare and unusual inscribed books! Many of these, but not this book, which was purchased from a different autograph dealer, were bought from Other Times Books, which was a legendary bookstore on Pico Boulevard near the 20th Century-Fox Studios in Los Angeles, California. The store was opened in 1974 by Andy Dowdy, and our consignor was one of his very regular customers. He has held these books in his collection for nearly half a century, and we are now offering them here. This is a great opportunity to purchase extremely rare books autographed by top people in the movie business! Note that Mr. Dowdy told his customers that he personally authenticated the autographs he sold, but he did not issue certificates of authenticity, so this book doesn't come with one. While we believe the autograph on this book is surely authentic, please do any research you want prior to placing a bid on it. Also note that we have pictured the front cover, the title page, and the interior page that shows the publishing information, and one or more interior 2-page spreads. As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased (although we prefer they do any "authenticating" while the auction is "live" and before they place a bid) and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
