Sold

Hardcover. First edition. Slightly cocked else fine in a price-clipped, near fine dustwrapper with a few marks on the front panel. Nicely Inscribed by McMurtry in an early, legible hand. Basis for the excellent Peter Bogdanovich film, which he co-scripted with McMurtry. It was Cybil Shepherd's debut and won Oscars for Cloris Leachman and Ben Johnson. A very nice copy.
