Description

First Edition, First Printing. Signed by actress Sue Lyon in red ink on a card affixed to the front flyleaf. Lyon starred at age 14 in Stanley Kubrick�s film adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov�s novel. Sue Lyon appeared in such films as John Ford�s 7 Women, Night of the Iguana with Richard Burton, The Flim-Flam Man with George C. Scott, Evel Knievel with George Hamilton, etc. Having retired from films in 1980, Sue Lyon�s autograph is very uncommon. This books prints Nabokov�s own screenplay for the film which in many ways is quite different than the finished film. Fine in a fine dust jacket.
