Reviews
On Jul 6 2007, Hazelwood_Booksellers said:
A definitive Hollywood bio looking back at the Roaring 20's through the 1930's during the golden age of the silver screen. A lavish and sumptuous era that coined the ever-enduring term, art deco, to describe the grandiosity Hollywood splashed across theater screens nationwide, capturing America for two decades in its glamorous stylings. 'Screen Deco' includes 250+ b&w plates, a wondrous marvel of photographs from both public archives and private collections. This work is a treasure trove for the movie buff, a rare treat for the retro art deco fan, and a feast for fans of both. Researched and written by two of the movie industries foremost historians.
