Discoloration, edge wear, possible instances of tearing, deckled pagination, isolated written markings (pencil, pen, or felt marker) ABBREVIATIONS KEY FS (Factory Sealed) VF (Very Fine) F (Fine) NF (Near Fine) VG (Very Good) G (Good) FR (Fair) P (Poor) GRADING TERMINOLOGY Chipping - A descriptor emphasizing the absence of portions of a book's edges, specifically as it relates to the binding or dust jacket cover Foxing - Brown spotting of paged content due to chemical exposure or reactivity to chemical agents, a state of condition commonplace to 19th Century written publications, particularly evident in steel engravings Deckled Pagination - Deckled pagination is identified as content ascribed to a particular book or novel whose edges are not evenly distributed, giving it the appearance of being loose from its fulcral attachment (spine). Some publishing companies utilize this as a means of establishing a sense of illusion with regard to the chronological age of a product (so as to create the impression of a faux-type of significance in the nostalgic sense), but, in most instances, deckled pages are a by-product of time. --------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE - If any of the items being featured here pique your interest, please don't hesitate to visit us online at our other Etsy sales venues at the following web addresses: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ArtReDunn – A massive database of scarce and unique artistic compositions from prominent luminaries to lesser known commodities comprising a litany of disciplines. https://www.etsy.com/shop/CollectiblesReDunn – An online service portal rife with rare antique and vintage collectibles from time immemorial, with particular focus and attention paid to items possessing a sense of nostalgic fervor. https://www.etsy.com/shop/OneReDunn – Featuring a large selection of novelty pieces, home décor, household tools and accessories tailored to fit your specific needs. https://www.etsy.com/shop/VinylsReDunn – Showcasing a large selection of antiquarian record albums from some of the music industry's most celebrated talents, including Johnny Cash, Chubby Checker, Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, and many more from a plethora of backgrounds and genres spanning generations.

Beautiful Anita Page (1910 – 2008) was one of the most famous and popular leading ladies during the last years of the silent screen and the first years of the talkie era. She was best known for starring in The Broadway Melody (1929), the first sound film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. Her leading men included the likes of John Gilbert, Clark Gable, Buster Keaton and Robert Montgomery. She was referred to as "a blond, blue-eyed Latin" and "the girl with the most beautiful face in Hollywood" in the 1920s. Only in her late teens when stardom beckoned, Anita had a huge following that earned her record amounts of fan mail, but she was seldom given lead roles, most often playing second lead, perhaps due to her youthful inexperience as an actress. She was a charming, much-loved screen personality but by 1932 MGM seemed to lose interest in her career despite impressive work in such films as Night Court (1932) and Skyscraper Souls (1932), and before the year was out her contract was not renewed; she slipped off into "B" stardom in films at Columbia, Universal and even more minor studios. She retired from the screen in 1936, making a return 25 years later in The Runaway (1961) with Cesar Romero, and she lived quietly out of the limelight for over a half century. In the 1990s the now widowed star was rediscovered by the media, which enjoyed her light-humored journeys down memory lane about her career, MGM, the silent and early talkie eras and the stars she knew, earning the actress a devoted cult of young fans and a few brief appearances in ultra-low-budget films of the 1990s.
