American author (1900–1949) whose single novel, Gone With the Wind, became one of the best-sellers of all time and spawned one of the most fabled movies in Hollywood history. She died after being struck by a speeding car at the age of 48. Signed book: Gone With the Wind. First edition, first printing (with “May 1936” on the copyright page). NY: Macmillan Company, 1936. Hardcover with dustjacket, 6 x 9, 1037 pages. Neatly signed in fountain pen on the first free end page, “Margaret Mitchell.” Light toning and foxing to signed page and both pastedowns, partially cracked front and rear hinge, light toning to pages, light toning staining to boards, fragmentary dustjacket retains only its front and rear panels and flaps, which have been repaired with old tape, with only a small section of the spine remaining, otherwise very good condition. Due to overwhelming demands upon her, Mitchell signed copies of her novel only for a short time after publication, even denying friends and relatives; signed copies are thus quite uncommon.
