HBDJ, 1965 ON TITLE & COPYRIGHT, 1st edition, with markout btm Title pg,Possible Ex-library Usual flaws, Tape residue, Markouts Etc, GOOD+/GOOD+ Blue Cloth with Gold Gilt titles & Tape Residue at Edges,,In many ways the book is in very nice condition. The binding is straight and tight, the corners are sharp, the gold lettering is bright. The book has a mylar protected dust jacket, and looks as if it has seldom been read. But it does have these two notable flaws: The mylar protected dust jacket was taped to the boards many years ago. The tape has disintegrated leaving a residue on the boards. I was able to remove a little of it, but I would prefer leaving that task to someone who is more skilled at it. There are no book pocket or anything else pasted into the book., LOIS LENSKI, written & Illustrated, Inner Flap Priceclipped but 30-80 CODE, Possible Ex-library Usual flaws, Tape residue, Markouts Etc,Index in Back, foreword.

Movie Filming of " 11th Hour " at Bluff Park Rare Books on Broadway in Long Beach Finished Shooting Recently. The Entire Movie for Fox Was Shot in the Bookstore. Film Called, The 11th Hour, Had to do with Strangers meeting a Grown up Alice in Wonderland on Rainy Night in the Bookstore. My how Alice Has Changed !Filming of the Movie The Eleventh Hour aka The Journey Beneath Alice's Bed was An Original Screenplay by David Daniels . This is Fox's way of Discovering New & Upcoming Filmmakers & Actors & Camera People ETC, And it started Raining right on Cue when Filming Started ! The Filmmakers are doing this Short Film on a Relatively Small Budget , but who knows it Might Become the Next Blair Witch Project. It Will be Shown on TV's Bravo , Fox Family Channel & on the Internet ! It Turned out to be a Wonderful Experience & the Cast & Crew were Delightful. After 12 Hours or so of shooting, Around 4 A.M. each morning when filming concluded for that day , they were careful to put everything Back in its Original Place.
