Item Description
9.25x12.25" hardcover w/144 pages. "1941 Echoes" yearbook for New Trier High School, Winnetka, IL. This is Heston's Senior yearbook and Hudson's (real name Roy Fitzgerald) Sophomore yearbook. Heston has a typical school portrait, while Hudson is featured in a group class photo. Heston has his photo featured in the Drama Casts section and is listed as a member of the "Rifle Club" in the "Senior Activities" section. Interesting, given Heston's later involvement w/the National Rifle Association. Covers show lt. wear/aging, with a few interior pages showing wear. Scattered typical inked inscriptions throughout. VF overall. This yearbook offers an interesting aside from Hollywood history, as Hudson turned down the title role in "Ben-Hur," only to have his classmate Heston play the part, winning an Academy Award for his portrayal.
