"Greta Garbo, Lon Chaney, Lillian Gish, Emil Jannings, Howard Hawks, and Josef von Sternberg are just a few of the stars and directors whose films have been lost through ignorance or indifference. Using a superb collection of stills, this book documents thirty American motion pictures from the 1920s that have perished. In addition to discussing the films and providing a synopsis and credits for each film, the author touches on the problems of film preservation."
A first edition from 1970 - this book grew out of the author's 'Stills from Lost Films' that he prepared for The Museum of Modern Art.
