Descripción

Presumably inscribed by Eleanor Jackson on a small yellow post-it on the cover to Thornton Wilder biographer Gilbert A. Harrison ("The Enthusiast: A Life of Thornton Wilder): "You might be interested in our bit about Mr. Wilder in Chapter 3. We're enjoying your book about him with enthusiasm. Our best, Eleanor and Julian Jackson" This is a 42-page booklet published by well-known publicists Eleanor and Julian Jackson, for their personal friends with four reminiscences from their days at the University of Chicago. The couple was at U of Chicago from 1926-1947 collectively as Mr. Jackson pursued an undergrad and PhD, and Mrs. Jackson her undergrad. The four essays/stories are titled: "Our Year with the General" (about General Jonathan W. Wainwright) which includes a facsimile of a Christmas card from the General to the couple; "A State Dental History Can Be Fun"; "Ivy-Covered Memories" (about Thornton Wilder's pursuit of a co-ed); and "A Century of What?" Also includes a facsimile of an inscription from Charles Lindbergh to the couple and a bw photo of Sally Rand associated with their story of being visited by her. Green wraps with sticker peel-away remnant on the cover and some small smudges and a few shelf bumps. Content free of marks or blemishes. N° de ref. del artículo 000105
