About This Item
London: Encore Publishing Co, 1959. Original wraps. Good +. SIGNED BY HAROLD PINTER on the title page. A solid copy to boot of the playwright's very first published work. Bright and Good+ in its fragile pictorial wrappers, with creasing and light chipping along the spine --and at the panel edges-- and very light staining and a bit of ink to the rear panel. Still though, quite presentable and, as the Nobelist's first play to appear on the London stage, very significant as such.
