MCMURTRY, LARRY. Some Can Whistle. New York: Simon & Schuster, 1989. First Edition, First Printing - Advance uncorrected proof copy. Signed presentation copy from Larry McMurtry to his old friend filmmaker Polly Platt with an excellent inscription - “For Polly, Danny Deck, later in life, Love, Larry”. Polly Platt was production designer on 'The Last Picture Show,'when married to the director, Peter Bogdanovich. It was Platt who discovered Larry McMurtry’s novel The Last Picture Show, and it is was she who outlined the treatment for the screenplay that Bogdanovich co-wrote with Larry McMurtry. Very good copy with soiling and use to the specially printed wrappers.
