Cimarron

[a very nice copy with no discernible wear, but with the remnants of a partially-erased inscription on the front endpaper; the jacket has a touch of edgewear, a couple of teeny-tiny nick at the top edge of the front panel, and a short diagonal crease at the bottom corner of the rear flap]. La Ferb's epic of the Oklahoma land rush, filmed twice, in 1931 and 1960 -- the former being the Oscar-winning Best Picture of its year, a bafflement to modern viewers, who almost invariably put it on their lists of "Worst Best Pictures." The colorful dust jacket on this edition, with wrap-around art by James Daugherty, is a relatively uncommon variant; although this printing is undated, it probably post-dates the movie tie-in version from 1931, the jacket of which (most commonly seen) would have been "retired" once the film was no longer current.
