What happened to Forry's book collection?

[Mike Scott]

I can't recognize H.B. Warner--

Here's some silent era photos of him.

What do you know! The whole book is on Google!

Here's a pic from the book with an inset of Warner. Looks like it could be the same guy?

Complication! It seems Warner was in the 1913 play as well as the 1914 movie! Well, back to the old drawing board!

lol--H.B. Warner was one busy guy back then.  The photos do look as though they're the same, seeing them side by side.  If you look at other photos in the book, see what you think--I think a couple look like stage sets--and a couple look like movie sets.  Back in '13-'14 there wasn't much difference in the two in many films.  I think I'll just go back to finding Amelia Earhart--it might be easier than figuring out this one!

Yes, that does make it more difficult. BTW The woman in the above pic appears to be Rita Stanwood (later Mrs. H. B.), who was also in both the play and movie.

This could be Jeanie Macpherson (inset), who was in the movie, but not in the stage play.


And this could be Theodore Roberts (inset), who also was in the movie, but not in the stage play.


OK, I'm done, now.

Had another shipment of Forry's books arrive while I was at the Bash this past weekend, and have not gone through them carefully--just unpacked 'em and here they are.  One title that had me briefly excited was THE MONSTER (1926), but alas, this was not related to the Chaney 1925 film (which was previously a stage play).  I did see an interesting Clark Ashton Smith volume among these heaps, though!  Treasure hunting among the Forry books invariably turns up interesting titles.

I have a copy of that Asimov book, "The Robots of Dawn". Is the "Star Trek Reader" a collection of stories based on the animated series?

Here's what it says:  Twelve more novelized episodes and SPOCK MUST DIE!, based on the exciting television series created by Gene Roddenberry.  Spock Must Die copyright 1970, Star Trek 10 & 11 copyright '74 and '75.  THIS collection copyright 1978. 

I recall these as Bantam paperbacks originally, I guess.

Yeah, the various Blish TOS adaptations (and the original novel, "Spock Must Die!") were rereleased as hardcover omnibuses.
