Original typescript of a long poem and a humorous stage play.

By: Gibson (Walter B.) [Maxwell Grant].

Price: $225.00

Seller ID: 53611

Seven pages, carbon and typed, many corrections and revisions in pencil. This comprises two versions of a long poem, and a four page humorous stage play. The subject is the opening of a new club in Woodruff (presumably, near Indianapolis). Pages are chipped at edges, the play is on very browned and fragile paper, heavily annotated, edges very chipped but complete. I bought this at the auction of Walter Gibson's estate, in New York State. Gibson, under the name Maxwell Grant, was the author of THE SHADOW.

Brown card covers, title label on front cover, green taped spine. 86pp. Typed script interleaved with blank pages, heavily annotated and revised in several colours of pen and pencil. This looks to be a translation into Czech of The Seesaw Log with the text of Two for the Seesaw (Knopf, 1959). A Czech TV movie was made of this work in 1965. This looks to be a working script, but its status is unknown.
