About This Item
New York: Penguin Books, Inc. (521). Very Good. 1943 (c.1940). 1st printing thus. Softcover. [a little external wear to edges and corners, slight fading to spine, minor diagonal creasing at bottom corner of rear cover, some kind of gunky spot (with a bit of accompanying surface-peel damage) on front cover]. (one B&W film still) Classic of Western fiction, and the basis for a stark and haunting 1943 film adaptation directed by William Wellman, starring Henry Fonda as a reluctant participant in a lynching. This particular printing (the first Penguin edition) is actually a tie-in with that movie, in a small way: there's a single half-page still from the film (showing Dana Andrews and Francis Ford) printed on the inside front cover, credited to 20th Century-Fox. Other than that there is no mention of the film in any part of the book, internally or externally. .
