First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine dj. Illustrated by (dj design) Meredith Nelson (illustrator). First Edition. [a couple of faint ink smudges on top edge of text block, no other blemishes; jacket is flawless]. (B&W and color photographs, maps) "In this book, [the author] throws open Hollywood's iron gates and take you inside the greatest and yet most mysterious movie studio of them all: Warner Bros. Long home to the world's biggest stars and most memorable films and television shows, the Warner Bros. Studio lot functions as a small city and is even more fascinating, glamorous, and outrageous than any of the stars or movies that it has been routinely minting for more than ninety years. Accompanied by stunning behind-the-scenes photos and maps and including a revealing backstory, this book is your ticket to a previously veiled Hollywood paradise." The Foreword is by Doris Day, who admits that "I'm afraid I took most of this for granted at the time, of course." The Appendix is a list of hundreds of films and TV programs shot on the Warners backlot, broken down by which standing sets they utilized. I'm not quite sure why the authors decided that Warners was the "most mysterious" of the major film studios, or that, say, M-G-M or Paramount wouldn't present a vigorous challenge to that claim about "the world's biggest stars and most memorable films" -- but why quibble, when the book is so fascinating and entertaining? ****NOTE that an additional shipping fee will be requested for international shipping of this heavy book, or for Priority Mail service to U.S. destinations.
