Description: Raised on a ranch in northern California, Jody is well-schooled in the hard work and demands of a rancher's life. He is used to the way of horses, too; but nothing has prepared him for the special connection he will forge with Gabilan, a hot-tempered pony his father gives him. With Billy Buck, the hired hand, Jody tends and trains his horse, restlessly anticipating the moment he will sit high upon Gabilan's saddle. But when Gabilan falls ill, Jody discovers there are still lessons he must learn about the ways of nature and, particularly, the ways of man. Fine in slipcase. Looks unread.

Description: Signed limited first edition of Steinbeck's classic novel, one of 699 copies. Octavo, original cloth, pictorial endpapers, with illustrations by Wesley Dennis. Fine in the rare original slipcase. An exceptional example. The three interconnected stories in this volume (a fourth was added in the 1945 edition) won praise on publication as "pure gold… all three of these stories have more depth, intensity and variety than one could possibly anticipate" (New York Times Book Review). To biographer Jackson Benson, they "act as a moral fulcrum… These stories, with their child observer, examine the nature of life and of death and the relationship of the individual to the whole" (True Adventures, 288).

Steinbeck, John. THE RED PONY (Inscribed by Steinbeck, from the library of film director Peter Bogdanovich with a dramatic and heart-breaking inscription about his murdered lover, actress and Playboy model Dorothy Stratten). Viking Press, 1945.

Price: US$7500.00 + shipping

Condition: Near Fine

Description: Steinbeck, John. The Red Pony. New York: Viking Press, 1945. First illustrated edition, with watercolors by Wesley Dennis throughout. Publisher's textured beige cloth with a watercolor illustration of a chestnut-colored foal pasted to the upper board. A Near Fine copy with minor wear, housed in its original publisher's slipcase. Signed and inscribed by Steinbeck to a named recipient; signed trade editions of The Red Pony are vastly harder to find than the signed limited first edition issued in 1937. This copy is additionally signed by noted director Peter Bogdanovich [ Director of "The Last Picture Show"] with his library stamp to the front paste-down. This inscription makes this copy of The Red Pony surely the most heart-breaking imaginable, inscribed with real pathos and authentic tenderness to the 12-year old sister of Dorothy Stratten (actress, Playboy Playmate, and Bogdanovich's lover) who was murdered only two months earlier by her estranged husband. The Red Pony served as the source material for the 1949 film of the same name, directed by Lewis Milestone and starring Myrna Loy and Robert Mitchum. The film notably features a screenplay adapted by Steinbeck himself. A unique copy with a dramatic and powerful association rarely encountered in the world of antiquarian bookselling.
