The author signs his name on this card in blue ink
Signature: "Booth Tarkington" in blue ink. 3¼x2¼. American
author Booth Tarkington (1869-1946) was awarded two of the first four
Pulitzer Prizes in Fiction: (The Magnificent Ambersons, 1919; and,
Alice Adams, 1922). His other novels include The Gentleman from
Indiana, Penrod, Penrod and Sam, The Two Van Revels and
Beasley's Christmas Party. Tarkington was known for his comical (and
almost cynical) style of the Lost Generation that characterized the 1920s.
Born to a middle class family in the Midwest, he immortalized that part of the
U.S. and its class struggles in most of his works. Although best known for his
writing, Tarkington also served as a Representative in the Indiana State
House of Representatives (1903-1904) and was a world traveler. Toned.
Corners rounded. Paperclip mark and minor rust stains at top margin. Adhesive
residue on verso. Otherwise, fine condition.
