First edition, 2nd printing. Written with Busby Berkeley. Foreword by Ruby Keeler. More than 250 photographs. A compilation of Berkeley's films that documents his rococo visual ornamentations. Author, Tony Thomas, spent time with Busby Berkeley and his wife, Etta, who supplied priceless photos and remembrances of his life in "The Man Behind the Spectacle." Mr. Berkeley's films are then individually addressed to give a rare look at his talent and process to make the camera itself dance. The photos themselves are a treasure trove, many not be published elsewhere. Film archivists continue to look at Berkeley's films and career as they are major stepping stones to more recent filmmakers such as Baz Lurhmann and will continue to influence the way movement is captured by the camera. Mostly black and white photos with a synopsis and comments on the films credited in one way or another to Buzz. Photographs are part of the description and should be used and viewed as such. I WILL combine shipping on items if possible. Combining may necessitate the change in the container that I use for mailing, and this will affect the weight and postage. Sometimes the large size items may need to ship Alone. Please take a look at my other parental estate items, everything under the sun!! Thanks for looking!************************* Many items are from our parent's estate and therefore are vintage or our grown children left behinds, expectations should include imperfections due to age or use, but I try diligently to describe anything that seems noteworthy. Some are current estate sale finds. Most things will be in AS_IS condition, one should realize that older or pre-owned items should not be considered like new items. I am NOT a business, but just dispersing mostly family estate items, I am not online all the time. Usually questions on weekdays will be answered in the evenings, understand that I am not ignoring your questions. Be advised that I will lightly dust or wipe down items that need dusting, but any real cleaning will usually be left to the discretion of the winning bidder. Grading conditions are subjective.
