A propos de cet article

An unusual and highly attractive copy of Enid Bagnold's National Velvet, subsequently enhanced by an excellent association with the celebrated MGM film adaptation. William Heinemann Ltd., London and Toronto, 1935. Copyright page stating simply "FIRST PUBLISHED 1935." 268 numbered pages followed by publisher's advertisements. Publisher's original black cloth with gilt lettering to the spine. Illustrated throughout with drawings by Laurian Jones, Enid Bagnold's daughter, who was only thirteen years old when she illustrated the book; Bagnold herself records in the Author's Note: "The drawings throughout have been done by my daughter Laurian, who is thirteen years old." Mounted to the first blank is a black-and-white photographic still from the MGM film National Velvet featuring Mickey Rooney, Elizabeth Taylor and Anne Revere, immediately beneath which is a separately mounted bold autograph of Elizabeth Taylor. The combination creates a particularly appealing association between Bagnold's original novel and the celebrated film adaptation in which the young Elizabeth Taylor played Velvet Brown, one of the defining roles of her early career. The book is supplied in an attractive later facsimile/reproduction Heinemann dust jacket incorporating Laurian Jones's distinctive drawings; the jacket is not the original 1935 dust jacket. Original black cloth binding firm and presentable, with corners bumped, several small areas of wear and tearing to the cloth around the spine and fading to the gilt spine lettering. Internally with general age-related toning/browning, scattered foxing and occasional minor marks; otherwise sound and complete. The Elizabeth Taylor signature is a separately mounted autograph and was not signed directly into the book. It is offered exactly as found and illustrated. No certificate of authenticity or other authentication accompanies the autograph. An unusual and extremely appealing combination of the true 1935 British first edition, the original illustrations by Bagnold's thirteen-year-old daughter, MGM film material and a mounted Elizabeth Taylor autograph. An excellent crossover item for collectors of Enid Bagnold, National Velvet, Elizabeth Taylor, classic Hollywood, MGM, equestrian literature, modern first editions and film memorabilia. - END - Our orders are shipped within 1 or 2 business days. - Thanks for your interest and I hope you like the book enough to buy it.…
