Sobre este artículo
New York: William Morrow & Company, 1929. First Edition, First Printing.
The story of Actors Equity Association, the theatre union formed in 1913 to fight for fair contracts and better working conditions. In the striking and scarce dust jacket.
The author, Alfred Harding, was the editor of Equity Magazine for more than 30 years. As The New York Times noted in his 1969 obituary: "In his book, Mr. Harding chronicles the one-month strike that virtually shut down Broadway in 1919, from which Equity dates its effectiveness as a bargaining agent for actors." (The New York Times, July 1, 1969, page 41.)
PHYSICAL DETAILS: Octavo (8 3/4 x 6 inches; 224 x 150 mm), 575 [1] pages, black cloth, titles stamped in gilt to spine, embossed actors' masks to front board, in a striking, illustrated dust jacket (hard cover).
CONDITION: Top edge a bit dusty but gilt titles remain bright and unfaded. Internally clean and unmarked. The price-clipped pictorial dust jacket has a few short, closed tears along the edges, with small cellotape mends to the verso. Corner flaps of jacket trimmed. Near Fine in the scarce dust jacket that is Very Good or better.
