Title: Hold Still...Hollywood! - Dick Powell's copy Author: Longworth, Bertram Place: Los Angeles Publisher: Ivan Deach, Jr. Date: 1937 Description: Photographs within. 32.5x24.7 cm. (12¾x9¾"), full limp black leather, lettered in gilt. One of 1000 copies, of which 500 were numbered and bound in limp leather, as here. However this copy not numbered, nor signed. First Edition. Dick Powell's copy with his name in gilt on front cover. A Hollywood rarity including interpretive portraits and photomontages of some of the greatest stars in cinema, including Boris Karloff, James Cagney, Gary Cooper, Paul Muni, Edward G. Robinson, Greta Barbo, Bette Davis, and many more. Between 1928 and 1939, Bert "Buddy" Longworth took the bulk of the celebrated stills for the elaborate production numbers of Warner Bros. musicals. A scarce item, with only 6 located by OCLC / Worldcat. Copies are often found in much worse condition, because the binding is fragile. Lot Amendments Condition: A touch chipped at spine ends and edges of covers, light scratches; text block a bit tender, some leaves close to detaching; very good; better than usually found. Item number: 221762
