Signed and inscribed first edition, third printing of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Beautiful and Damned.” New York: Charles Scribner’s Sons: 1922. Fitzgerald’s second novel paints a vivid portrait of the Eastern elite during the Jazz Age in America. Copy is inscribed by Fitzgerald on the front free endpaper: “This book oddly enough is responsible from its title for the phrase ‘beautiful and dumb.’ I doubt if it has any other distinction. For Edward Everett Horton from F. Scott Fitzgerald / Encino 1939.” In publisher’s original green cloth boards with some soiling. Includes a later printing dustjacket from the A.L. Burt edition with minor wear. Very good condition. Sold for $10,781.
Scarce Signed Copy of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s ”The Great Gatsby”

Signed and inscribed by Fitzgerald to actor Ned Griffith: ”For Ned Griffith / from his friend / F. Scott Fitzgerald / Hollywood 1939”. Fitzgerald’s new introduction to ”Gatsby” reads in part: ”…I think it is an honest book, that is to say, that one used none of one’s virtuosity to get an effect, and, to boast again, one soft-pedalled the emotional side to avoid the tears leaking from the socket of the left eye…” In original publisher’s blue cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine, though sun-faded in spots. The Modern Library torchbearer emblem is stamped in gilt on front board and the endpapers are printed in orange. With a ”Stanley Rose Bookshop” ticket affixed to rear pastedown. Lower corner of front board is bumped and a tiny .25” hole appears to lower corner of front free endpaper; overall, book is in very good condition. Includes original dustjacket in fair condition, with price clipped, significant chips and some paper loss. An incredibly rare signed copy of Fitzgerald’s great novel, with a still bold inscription and signature. Sold for $9,375.
Signed First Edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Acclaimed Debut Novel “This Side of Paradise” — “…to write it took three months; to conceive it — three minutes; to collect the data in it — all my life…”
Rare F. Scott Fitzgerald signed first edition, third printing of “This Side of Paradise”. New York: Charles Scribner’s Sons: 1920. One of approximately 500 copies with a tipped-in “Author’s Apology” leaf boldly signed in pen, “Sincerely / F. Scott Fitzgerald”. Prepared for an American Booksellers Association convention, Fitzgerald’s signed “Apology” reads: “I don’t want to talk about myself because I’ll admit I did that somewhat in this book. In fact, to write it took three months; to conceive it — three minutes; to collect the data in it — all my life. The idea of writing it came on the first of last July: it was a substitute form of dissipation. My whole theory of writing I can sum up in one sentence: An author ought to write for the youth of his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmasters of ever afterward. So, gentlemen, consider all the cocktails mentioned in this book drunk by me as a toast to the American Booksellers Association. May, 1920″. Hardcover book, without dustjacket, is in original teal-cloth boards and measures 5.5″ x 7.5”. “S” in Fitzgerald’s “Sincerely” is slightly smudged. Very good. Sold for $8,000.
