A Vintage Hardcover Book (measures 5 1/4" x 7 3/4" [13 x 20 cm]; 311 pages) (Learn More) Zane Grey's To the Last Man, the 1923 Victor Fleming silent cowboy western (based on the novel by Zane Grey) starring Lois Wilson, Richard Dix, Noah Beery Sr., Robert Edeson and Frank Campeau. Note that Lois Wilson was an actress and director from the 1910s to the 1950s. Some of her movies include: Bright Eyes, Female, Monsieur Beaucaire, Seed, Manslaughter, and The Girl from Jones Beach. She somehow managed to direct and star in a movie when she was 21, and she made a lot of movies between 1915 and 1936, and I would love to know more about her! It is fascinating that she was billed over Richard Dix in this western (not because Dix was a giant star yet, but because it is so unusual to see a female top billed in a western!)

This book has the original dust jacket. Here are more details about these books: Grosset & Dunlap was a publisher that made a deal with all the studios in the 1910s to publish "movie edition" hardcovers of novels that were currently adapted into movies (there were also some by other publishers, but Grosset & Dunlap printed the lion's share of these). They would republish the original novel as the movie came out (or soon after), and they would put a dust jacket on the book that showed the stars of the movie, and they would usually include several pages of images from the movie scattered in the book. These books were incredibly popular in the 1920s and 1930s, and they are quite collectible, especially if they still have the original dust jacket! 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. Because we know that the dust jacket is an important part of the value of this book, we also pictured the entire dust jacket opened up. Between that image and our other images, you should be able to get a good sense of the overall condition of this book. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
