About This Item

New York: Random House. Very Good+ in Very Good dj. (c.1954). Fireside BCE. Hardcover. [slight bump to upper rear corner, minor dust-soiling to top of text block, one-time owner's name and address (screenwriter Mel Shavelson) neatly printed on front pastedown; jacket typically browned at spine, short tear at lower front foldover with short diagonal crease at lower right corner of front panel]. (two B&W photographs) Based on Bissell's novel "7-1/2 Cents," about a labor dispute in a New England factory; basis for the 1957 film of the same name (co-directed by Abbott and Stanley Donen). [This edition lacks a printing statement, but seems to be one of the earliest Fireside Theatre Book Club printings, quite possibly the first thus of this title, as the rear jacket panel contains testimonials from Gertrude Lawrence, Katharine Cornell, Noel Coward, and others, lauding the "proposed plan" for the Fireside Theatre as "an excellent idea."] .
