HILTON, James
Good-bye, Mr. Chips
Eight edition, but the first edition in the "H&S Books" format. Pencil gift inscription, fine in a very lightly rubbed, else fine dustwrapper. Basis for two films: the 1939 Sam Wood-directed version with Robert Donat (who beat out Clark Gable, Henry Fonda and others for the Best Actor Oscar in what was probably Hollywood's best year ever), Greer Garson and Paul Henreid and the 1969 remake directed by Herbert Ross with Peter O'Toole, Petula Clark and Michael Redgrave. A very attractive copy of this reprint.
