Tony Curtis: The Autobiography [*SIGNED*]

  • SIGNED Hardcover
  • New York: William Morrow and Company, Inc., (c.1993)
By Curtis, Tony, and Barry Paris
New York: William Morrow and Company, Inc.. Fine in Fine dj. (c.1993). First Edition. Hardcover. [lovely, as-new copy, with no discernible wear to either book or jacket]. (B&W photographs) INSCRIBED (with only the inscribee's first name) and SIGNED by the author, on the verso of the half-title page (with some bleed-through). Bernie Schwartz of the Bronx tells his story, "from his boyhood in the Depression-era New York streets -- back when he was a fast-footed, quick-witted kid, the son of Hungarian-Jewish immigrants -- through forty years as an eminent screen idol. [The book] pulls no punches: Curtis debunks myths of stardom and glamour with a raw, uncensored, street-honed New York bite." (He rather negated the "The Autobiography" subtitle when he published another one in 2005, "American Prince," which was subtitled "My Autobiography.") Signed by Author .
