by Grace Bradley Boyd Grace Bradley Boyd is now 95, and her mind is razor sharp, with memories of her early days in Brooklyn and her coming to Hollywood in the early 1930's as a new Paramount starlet. She tells story after story about her and Bill, about Bill and Hoppy - here is a real story, the story of Grace and Bill, with the entire film career of both of them and the story of Hopalong Cassidy woven into the tapestry. Theirs was a love story, a remarkable one. It is a book of posters, too. And an accurate telling of how William Boyd literally became the fictional character Hopalong Cassidy, and how he soared to a worldwide popularity with millions of children. The volume features introductions by President Bill Clinton and singer Don McLean. This limited edition of only 1,000 copies is bound in real genuine cowhide (not bonded leather, real leather) with sterling silver decoration on the cover. The leather is thick because it is embossed with a special design created by leather artisan Jim Lockwood, who studied Hoppy's original gun belt at the American Heritage Center in Wyoming. Each copy of the limited edition is hand signed personally by Grace. (immagine)
