first edition Hardcover
(c.1947) · New York
by Williams, Tennessee
New York: New Directions Books. Very Good in Poor dj. (c.1947). First Edition. Hardcover. [a decent sound copy, with some fading at the spine ends where the jacket is torn away, shelfwear to bottom edge, slight bumping to lower corners, tiny ownership signature of film director Vincent Sherman on front endpaper (the second scanned image is of the jacketless book); the jacket is heavily worn, with uneven fading, paper loss at both ends of spine; the spine is faded and the jacket is split along the front hinge (held together by the paper-lined mylar jacket)]. Not the prettiest copy you'll ever see of the first edition (all points checked) of Williams's breakthrough play, but bargain-priced to reflect its various deprecations. .
