Sobre este artículo
(New York): New Directions, 1958. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. First edition. Near fine with light wear at the corners and offsetting on the endpapers in lightly toned near fine dust jacket with some wear at the spine ends. Signed by Tennessee Williams, and Inscribed twice by the book's dedicatee Anne Meachem to her close friend and fellow classmate at the Yale School of Drama, Marian Seldes. Meachem inscribed the book on a sheet laid down onto the front pastedown ("My dearest Marian another Catherine - Annie") and again on the dedication page ("Marian - love Annie"), where Meachem is listed as the dedicatee. Meachem won an Obie Award for her portrayal of Catherine in the debut of the 1958 off-Broadway production of the play. The book is additionally Inscribed by the play's director Herbert Machiz. Tennessee Williams worked alongside Seldes when she starred with Tallulah Bankhead in his ill-fated production of *The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore*. A remarkable association copy of this important Tennessee Williams one-act play.
