About This Item
Previous owner's name on left side of front endpapers and a Christmas gift inscription on the right side for 1943. "A vivid, human story of the men in the U.S. Merchant Marine who man the life lines of the United Nations." Made into a movie starring Humphrey Bogart. 21 stills from the movie have been inserted into the book to add to the exciting text. The usual 'Yellowing' of wartime paper, but still a VG copy. Price-clipped pictorial d.j. has some chipping at edges but is at least a G+ example with some of the movie stills on the back of the d.j. and a dark, menacing scene on the spine and front of the d.j. (also in the book across from p. 33).
