[Charles Agvent]

 From our new catalogue of 137 items, nearly all recent acquisitions, by EUDORA 
WELTY and TENNESSEE WILLIAMS now posted on our web site.

WILLIAMS, Tennessee. THE GLASS MENAGERIE. New York: Random House
(1945).   First  Edition.  Bound  in   the  publisher's  coarse,  dark
reddish-orange   cloth,  one  of  three   bindings  with  no  priority
established    among  them.  Crandell   A1.I.a.   Illustrated   with a
frontispiece  photograph  from  the  original  production.  Only  5000
copies  of  this high spot of twentieth century drama were  published.
This  copy is INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the front endpaper
"To  Marshall/ever/Tennessee  Williams." Marshall New was one  of  the
directors  at the Hippodrome Theatre in Gainesville, Florida, in  1979
when  Williams visited a week to see a production of his obscure  play
TIGER  TAILS,  which  had  its world premiere  the  previous  year  in
Atlanta.  Bottom  corners of the book frayed with the board  exposed a
little.  The  dustwrapper has light chipping along the top and  bottom
edges  but  presents  quite  well.  Very Good  in  a  Good  or  better
dustwrapper.                                                  $7500.00
