Hunter S. Thompson, Hells Angels. New York: Random House, 1967. Second overall impression, signed twice and inscribed To The Library on the half title page and then signed again on the title page and dated 9.29.96 Viper Room . Octavo, 278pp., publisher s black cloth boards with silver gilt details to front cover and silver and red lettering to spine. Deckled fore edge, solid black top stain. Jacket with 1/67 code to bottom front flap, price clipped. This night would be the second ever meeting of Johnny Depp and Thompson He [Depp] was now determined to bring Thompson to the big screen and make the character Raoul Duke his own. To broach the possibility, Depp invited Thompson to do a one-night gig at the Viper Room, the actor s notorious rock club on Sunset Boulevard. Thus it was that on September 29, 1996, a sellout crowd roared with laughter as the two Kentucky Outlaws held a kind of weird lyceum. Pere Ubu met Marcel Duchamp for three hours of absurdist dialogue ranging from Plato s parable of the cave to President Clinton s foreign policy. After the event, the two began corresponding by fax. A few weeks later, Thompson phoned Depp early one morning to ask whether the actor had any interest in playing Duke if a movie version was ever made. Depp was taken aback. It was the role I always wanted to play, he recalls. Without hesitation, I said, You bet! Douglas Brinkley, George Magazine, 1998. An absolutely fantastic copy with a signature from one of the more memorable Thompson/Depp events. Book in VG with Random House H to the FFEP, shelf wear. Some offsetting. Strong binding, no lean of any kind. Corners lightly bumped. Jacket in VG, price clipped. A couple of very small close tears, tape repaired on verso. Bright colors to spine and both panels. A very nice association.…
