From our latest catalogue of 137 items, nearly all recent acquisitions,
by EUDORA WELTY and TENNESSEE WILLIAMS now posted on our web site.
[WILLIAMS, Tennessee]. THE 1931 TIGER ISSUE OF THE MISSOURI
SAVITAR. [Columbia, MO]: University of Missouri 1931. First Edition.
Small folio (9" x 12-1/4") bound in embossed black leather.
Illustrated with photographs and drawings. Yearbook for the second of
three years that Tennessee Williams attended the university with his
small photograph on his fraternity's page along with his brothers,
who dubbed him Tennessee for his Southern drawl. Some brothers later
figured as characters in his plays including Harold Mitchell in A
STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE. An important period in Williams's life, one
of the most normal for that matter, very shortly after he had written
his first play, BEAUTY IS THE WORD, and when he was discovering his
sexual orientation. Owner name of student on front free endpaper.
Very Good $250.00
