Sobre este item
New York: A.L. Burt Company, 1924. About Very Good, lacking the dustjacket. gilt lettering at spine dulled and barely legible, cloth rubbed at the tips, prior owner name front endpage, faint erasures rear pastedown. From the personal library of Will H. Hays, with a tipped in single page yellow typing paper, dated Jan. 14, 1947, titled "References to WILL H. HAYS and Topics of interest in "Illiterate Digest" by Will Rogers". Pencil underlining and marginal checkmarks on pages referenced. Obviously a copy that was well read and referenced by Hays, who managed Warren G. Hardings successful campaign for the Presidency of the U.S. and was subsequently appointed Postmaster General. After a year in that position, he resigned to become most famously known as the first President of Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA), which under his guidance published a blacklist of actors and workers studios should not hire, inserted moral clauses into actors' contracts, and published an informal list of suggested guidelines for film producers. When the Catholic Church formed its Legion of Decency and threatened nationwide boycotts of movies, Hays installed a more formal production code, called the Hays Code( later simply "The Code"), which became the virtual law of Hollywood until the 1960s.. First Edition Thus. Cloth. Very Good Minus/No Jacket. Illus. by Nate Collier.
