Description: EISENSTEIN, SERGEI M. & S.J. YUTKEVICH, EDS. American Cinematography: D.W. Griffith. Moscow: Goskinoisdat, 1944. First Edition. Text and inscription in Russian. Signed presentation copy from film director Sergei Eisenstein to film sound engineer Boris Alexeivich Volsky inscribed in Russian which translated reads: “To dear Boris Alexeivich on a day of joy which I hope will change the misery. With love, Sergei Eisenstein, December 44”. Very good in decorated stamped cloth. A very rare book printed while the Russians were fiercely battling the Nazis, this book was printed in very small quantities. Volsky recorded the sound for Eisenstein’s Ivan the Terrible Part One which was being filmed at this time. Original stamped decorative cloth. Very good. Boris Volsky recorded the sound for Eisenstein’s Alexander Nevsky (1938), Ivan the Terrible Part One (1948), and Ivan the Terrible Part Two (1958). Eisenstein’s autograph is a legendary rarity.
