FITZGERALD, F. SCOTT Borrowed Time
London The Grey Walls Press 1951
First Edition. This was the office file copy of F. Scott Fitzgerald's agent, Harold Ober Associates, with their agency stamp on the front free endpaper. With some minor pencil notations at the Table of Contents. A collection of short stories selected by Alan and Jennifer Ross. Very good copy with a bit of edge wear and some very faint darkening and minor tearing to the cloth at the top of spine in a very good dust jacket with some darkening to the spine and a couple of shallow chips and tiny tears. Harold Ober (1881 - 1951) was one of America's most respected and successful literary agents. He represented such distinguished authors as William Faulkner, and is perhaps best known for both his professional and personal association with F. Scott Fitzgerald. Ober's relationship with Fitzgerald was particularly close and supportive, and like any complex alliance, it suffered through occasional bouts of conflict and contention. Over the years Ober played an integral role in the cultivation of Fitzgerald's career, offering professional counsel and financial assistance, often giving him advances against unsold stories. In turn, Fitzgerald dedicated his book, Taps At Reveille, to Ober. After Fitzgerald's wife Zelda was institutionalized, Harold and Anne Ober stepped in as virtual foster parents to the Fitzgerald's young daughter, Scottie. When Fitzgerald died suddenly in Hollywood, CA while working on The Last Tycoon, his companion Sheilah Graham's first call was to Ober, with whom Scottie was staying, informing him of the sad news. Ober then called Zelda Fitzgerald in Montgomery, AL. The Obers continued their affection and support of Scottie, including lending her money so that she could complete her education at Vassar. All in all, Fitzgerald and Ober were clearly a dynamic literary force, and without question helped to bring modern American literature forward with intelligence, commitment, and style.

Ò...Am making a deal for a serial novel in the East which I hope will shortly lift my worries from off my somewhat bowed shoulders...Ó Signed in full in blue ink ÒScott Fitzgerald.

FITZGERALD, F. SCOTT Original Typed Letter Signed from F. Scott Fitzgerald
Encino, California 1 page, quarto December 26, 1939
Written to Isabel Horton, sister of actor Edward Everett Horton from whom F. Scott Fitzgerald rented a cottage in Encino, California during 1939. Fitzgerald had come to Hollywood to make money screenwriting and collect himself as a writer after series of troubled times. He was very cash strapped and Fitzgerald writes Mrs. Horton and asks her for help. Ò...Things look a little brighter. My health is better and I really think I am going to work at the studios within a week. All this illness has, however, put me in debt and it may be some months before I am straightened out. In our conversation several weeks ago you mentioned the possibility of temporarily reducing the rent to $150. I believe that at this rental I could carry on here. Is the offer still open? I hate to ask it in this winter season when the valley is at its most attractive, but Miss Kroll [Frances Kroll, his secretary] and I have figured that in order to get straight with the world we will have to cut down on about everything. On the assumption that this offer is open I am enclosing a draft for $150, to cover the rent from December 19th to January 19th. Ever yours, sincerely and gratefully....Ó, then signed in blue ink with autograph postscript ÒScott Fitzgerald - Very best to Eddie if you're with him.Ó

Scott Fitzgerald's agent, Harold Ober, to whom this book is dedicated with his bookplate affixed to the front free endpaper and with the Harold Ober Associates stamp at the front pastedown.
