Dalton Trumbo SIGNED 1st
JOHNNY GOT HIS GUN

Trumbo SIGNED GunHere is a tremendous copy of screenwriter and novelist Dalton Trumbo's most famous book, the anti-war epic which won a National Book Award (then known as an American Book Sellers Award) in 1939! Incredibly, this copy has been SIGNED by Trumbo himself, a very rare signature! First editions of this classic are tough to find especially with dustjacket because shortly after the 1941 German invasion of the Soviet Union, Trumbo ordered all copies of Johnny Got His Gun to be recalled and stopped any further publication of the book! This is a very rare collector's item! Hardcover w/ DJ. 1st/1st. VG/VG.
