About this Item

B&W Illustrations; This is a Little Big Book (though not labeled as such) This book is in Very Good condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The book and its contents are in generally clean, bright condition. There is edge wear, bumping, rubbing and some paper loss to the spine ends, corners and edges of the book covers. The bottom rear spine joint has cracked a bit, with some wear and chipping to the paper. The text pages are mostly clean, but noticeably toned due to the acid content of the paper. This is a photoplay style book with black and white photographs of the movie throughout. This book is based on the Warner Bros. Film of the same name, which in turn was based on the broadway production. "Old pals Jake Lee (Pat O'Brien) , Tex Clarke (Stuart Erwin) and Dizzy Davis (James Cagney) flew together in the Army during World War I. Almost 20 years later, Jake is the manager of the Newark, New Jersey branch of Federal Airlines, a New York-based airline company. Tex works as an airmail pilot and Dizzy, also still flying aircraft, is seeking employment with his friends. Prior to his hot-shot arrival (Dizzy does a few tricks in the air before landing) , a New York associate warns Jake about Dizzy, calling him unreliable and troublesome. Insulted, Jake replies that Dizzy is one of the best pilots in the country, telling a few stories about his fearlessness and bravery." (from Wikipedia).
