[Signed] Maxwell, Elsa. R.S.V.P., Elsa Maxwell’s Own Story. Sixth Printing. 1954. Book is in very good condition; dust jacket is in very good minus condition—jacket shows a trace of fraying and moderate fading to the spine. Book is warmly inscribed “For my old friend Reggie whose honeymoon I joined in Paris 30 years ago!! Love, Elsa Maxwell.”
The inscription in this copy implies portly party-giver Elsa Maxwell not only hosted gatherings, she crashed honeymoons. And, knowing Elsa, her presence undoubtedly made even this most romantic of occasions more fun. This is her autobiography in which she dishes not only on herself but also on the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Maria Callas, Cole Porter, Prince Aly Khan, and many others.
“The only fear I have ever had is the dread of boredom, and as I grow older it is almost a phobia.”
--Elsa Maxwell
