Gut
Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Synopsis
Now in paperback, the complete story of the actor's career, including his secret gay life.Raymond Burr (1917-1993) was an enigma. A film noir regular known for his villainous roles in movies like Rear Window, he eventually became one of the most popular stars in television history as the lead actor on two top-rated dramas, Perry Mason and Ironside, which between them ran virtually uninterrupted for 20 years.But Raymond Burr was leading a secret gay life at a time in Hollywood when exposure would have been career suicide. To protect his secret, Burr fabricated a tragic past for himself as a grieving husband and father. He claimed to have been twice widowed - he said his first wife had died in a plane crash, and his second marriage had ended with his wife's early death from cancer. And there was also a dead son - 10-year-old Michael, who lost his battle with leukemia. Neither of the wives nor Michael ever existed. But that didn't stop these lies from being perpetuated again and again, even in Burr's New York Times obituary.Hiding in Plain Sight examines the totality of Raymond Burr's career and his personal life, including his 35 years with partner Robert Benevides. The author interviewed over 30 people who knew or worked with Burr, including Angela Lansbury, Barbara Hale, Robert Wagner, Gale Storm, and more., Now in paperback, the complete story of the actor's career, including his secret gay life.

    I ordered the collectors edition of this Chiltons manual. What i recieved was the correct yr of the Chilton manual but was not the Collectors Edition. I msgd Seller and informed them, they refunded me 50% of my cost and i kept the manual recieved. I m very satisfied with the outcome. I recommend this seller.

    The book I ordered from this seller was delivered ahead of schedule. It was double-wrapped to ensure no damage in shipping, and it arrived in excellent condition. The condition of this "used" book exceeded the advertised condition. Fantastic seller!

    Super fast shipping. Book is as advertised. Would recommend this seller. Only issue was, seller uses barcode stickers for inventory. The barcode sticker was stuck to the back of the dust jacket of the book. It would be better to place the barcode sticker on the plastic bag you stored the book in rather the dust jacket itself. Luckily I was able to remove the sticker in its entirety.

  • The book itself was in excellent condition, but the content was a stinker.

    There was nothing revelatory about the book. It was mostly a rehash of old information, plus a lot of plot synopsis of Burr's old films, which added nothing to the book except for page count. I hope at some point in the future, somone writes a truly interesting and factual biography about this wonderful character actor, flaws and all. He was a conflicted, but interesting character and this book really doesn't contribute in any way to letting us understand him as a person. The book I received was in like-new condition, but if I'd known that it was such a poor read, I wouldn't have bought it.

  • GOOD 👍

    I've always been a fan of Perry Mason, aka, Raymond Burr. The book is good, but repeative. He had a secret life, but I want to know more of his life.
