Description

Welcome to my auctions today we are offering:
Here is a personal item that I inherited from my great uncle after he passed away years ago.
This is a autographed copy of the book that was to be made into a movie.
Born in Wedlock First Edition 1956 that he had signed by Judy Garland. He was invited by her husband Sid Luft backstage to meet and talk to her and autograph this book. He had secured tickets for all of the shows that week at The RKO The Palace theater in New York. The show was called "At Home at the Palace" When he told Sid that fact. Sid knew he had to take him backstage to meet Judy.
From what else he conveyed to us as I remember it was was approx. July 31,1967 which was her final appearances on Broadway. And only a couple years prior to her death as the drugs and alcohol were really effecting her health
The book is in worn condition as you see in Pics check out all 11 pics
PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS I WILL HELP THE BEST I CAN
I have no idea of its worth so before sending it out to a memorabilia auction house. I am just putting a starting bid up there and will consider reasonable
offers

See below for more information I have found

BORN IN WEDLOCK (aka GAIETY GIRL) (1957)

In a 1957 interview, Judy reported that she was taking her Palace show to France, Germany and England where she would film the movie version of the book “Born In Wedlock” that she and husband Sid Luft had acquired, the acquisition of the property by Judy and Sid was first reported in 1956. Then on May 11, 1958, after her show at the Minnesota State Centennial Celebration, Sid announced that he was going to produce “Born In Wedlock” on Broadway that fall starring an unknown, with the intention of later filming it with Judy in the lead role. Late July 1959: With backers in place, Judy and Sid checked into the Health Farm “Comanche Ranch” in Hidden Valley, California to lose weight in anticipation of the filming of Born In Wedlock which had been renamed Gaiety Girl. On November 14, 1960, “Billboard” magazine reported that Fred Finklehoffe was writing a screenplay for this project that would begin filming in England “next year.” The film was never made.
