Signed $20 check made out to Exotic Gardens on New Year's Eve
Check signed: "Philip G. Wylie", 7¼x3¼. New York, N.Y.,
1963 December 31. Check #6843, drawn on his personal account at the Chase
Manhattan Bank, payable to Exotic Garden for $20. Filled out in Wylie's hand.Philip Gordon Wylie (1902-1971) was a prolific author of fiction and
nonfiction. His fiction ranged from mysteries to apocalyptic science fiction;
his nonfiction anticipated much later discussion of topics like ecology and
gender roles. Nine of his stories were made into films, including When
Worlds Collide (1933 book, 1951 film). His dystopias included Triumph
(1963), set in the aftermath of a nuclear war; and The End of the Dream
(1972), which posited an environmental collapse. Edges lightly frayed. Bank
processing stamps (light show through). Otherwise, fine condition. A portion
