SCHULBERG, BUDD. Waterfront. 8vo, publisher's off-white cloth, spine lettered in brown and black; unclipped dust jacket, some laminate separation as often found. First edition, flirtatiously inscribed by the author on front endpaper, "For Nancy - / Not only a super / press agent, but my / secret love. Only now, the / secret is out. / Onward & thanks - / Budd S. / Southampton campus, L.I.U., 5/12/90." Schulberg wrote the 1954 Academy Award-winning screenplay for On The Waterfront which won Best Picture and seven other Oscars. Uncommonly nice copy with a delightful inscription. New York: Random House, (1955)
