Item description

MERTON OF THE MOVIES by Harry Leon Wilson Garden City, New York: Doubleday, Page Company, 1922. First edition. Previous owner's name in ink to front free endpaper, very light wear to the spine ends, else very good plus; no dust jacket. This hilarious story of Merton Gill, who worked in a grocery store but dreamed of becoming a movie star, was a successful play, produced at the Cort Theatre, and later transformed into a Red Skelton vehicle for MGM. Considered one of the best Hollywood novels! FREE SHIPPING TO THE USA PLEASE VIEW OUR STORE FOR MORE GREAT FIRST EDITION BOOKS THANKS!
