Elmore Leonard 7 SIGNED Books & 2 Letters: Get Shorty, Cuba Libre, Pronto & more

Description: 7 Signed Books & 2 Original Letters Elmore Leonard was a client of my parent's automobile storage business. His vehicles were left in storage in West Palm Beach, FL when he was "up north" for the summer. My parents would bring his vehicles to the Palm Beach International Airport when he came to his home in FL for the winter or other events. The letters mention "Get Shorty" having a hard time getting picked up for a movie deal, artwork and illustrators and his switch from Dell/Delacorte Publishing to Harper Collins. He sent my parents these books and letters which are on his personal stationary and one is still in the original envelope with his name and address on it. Signed Books: - Get Shorty (paperback) - Pronto (hardcover) - Cuba Libre (hardcover) - Tishomingo Blues (hardcover) - Mr. Paradise (hardcover) - Pagan Babies (hardcover) - Be Cool (hardcover) About the author: Elmore John Leonard Jr. (October 11, 1925 August 20, 2013) was an American novelist, short story writer, and screenwriter. His earliest novels, published in the 1950s, were Westerns, but he went on to specialize in crime fiction and suspense thrillers, many of which have been adapted into motion pictures. Among his best-known works are Hombre, Swag, City Primeval, LaBrava, Glitz, Freaky Deaky, Get Shorty, Rum Punch, Out of Sight and Tishomingo Blues. Leonard's short story "Three-Ten to Yuma" was adapted as 3:10 to Yuma, which was remade in 2007. Rum Punch was adapted as the Quentin Tarantino film Jackie Brown (1997). His writings were also the basis for The Tall T, as well as the FX television series Justified and Justified: City Primeval. Among other honors, he won the 2009 Pen Lifetime Award and the 2012 Medal For Distinguished Contribution to American Letters.
