London: W.H. Allen, 1969. 248 pages. Hardcover in red cloth. Small bookseller's label to front pastedown and touch of foxing to fore-edge. Very good in a very good price-clipped dustwrapper with a former crease line along the length of its front flap. First English edition. The scarce autobiography of this Brooklyn native and beautiful actress, written before her relatively early death. During World War Two, Lake became a popular pin-up girl and starred in several hit films, including This Gun for Hire (1942), The Glass Key (1942), and The Blue Dahlia (1946). She frequently portrayed the femme fatale and remains a Hollywood icon known for her captivating screen presence.

8vo, 281pp., first American printing. Book and the dustwrapper are in near fine condition—jacket shows minor fraying and a few small tears. Co-written by Donald Bain. The 1940s pin-up sensation Veronica Lake—Paramount's top star from that era—had more than her share of lows, and it is possible to portray her life as tragic. Yet a different picture of her emerges from this late-in-life autobiography, in which she comes across as deeply introspective and devoid of bitterness. In it, she recognizes both the bad and good in midcentury Hollywood, a town in which money "was so plentiful it often seemed that much of it was spent in desperate moves to get rid of it." A book which is now increasingly scarce and hard to find in first edition.
