Well, this is different!
I am very much a technical person and in the world of electronics, a lot of what is happening is "black and white" cause and result is predictable. But there is another side, the "arty" part of the brain which allows me to enjoy art in all its forms, including film and video.
That is what this book is all about, videos but not just any video, it provides a comprehensive resource guide to those "must see" movies across many genres although my personal favourite was seeking out those in the "Planet Of The Tapes" section (Sci Fi & Fantasy) such as Beyond The Time Barrier (1960) and Invaders From Mars (1953) bad movies for sure but great fun to watch!
So back to this book ....
VIDEOSCOPE - The Phantom Of The Movies
Three Rivers Press
First Edition 2000
ISBN: 0-8129-3149-1
Printed in USA
Soft Cover
570+ pages
Not much by way of photographs but a good, sometimes comical description of each film
COSMETIC CONDITION:
NO names or notes have been written anywhere on the book
Clean
NO torn pages
NO missing pages
Yes, there is light "foxing" on all pages. This is not due to smoke but over time (particularly with lower grade papers) the paper reacts with oxygen in our atmosphere turning the paper pages from light brown/yellow to an eventual quite dark brown.
All pages are perfectly readable and the paper is not "damaged" it just doesn't look good!
To try and stabilise the condition, I have now taken this book from the shelves and sealed it within clear plastic and this is how it will be supplied.
