(B&W photographs) The book and lyrics (but not the music) for the Broadway musical about Fiorello LaGuardia, the popular New York City mayor who served from 1934 to 1945. The musical was popular, too: it ran for two seasons (November 1959-October 1961; 795 performances), and did very well in the major theatre awards, winning three Tony Awards (including Best Musical, shared with "The Sound of Music," and Best Featured Actor for star Tom Bosley), the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Musical. And yet it's never made it into the canon of "great Broadway musicals," and none of its songs has ever become a standard.

[nice clean copy, minimal shelfwear only; the jacket is edgeworn (most heavily along the spine), with tiny bits of paper loss at the spine ends and outer corners, and a very small chip at the top edge of the rear panel]. (B&W photographs) Musical comedy about shop workers who dislike each other in person but fall in love through their pen-pal correspondence, derived from the same play ("Parfumerie" by Miklós László) which was the source for Ernst Lubitsch's lovely 1940 film THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER. The frontispiece caricature drawing of the original Broadway cast (including Barbara Cook, Daniel Massey, Barbara Baxley, and Jack Cassidy) is by Al Hirschfeld. The original production ran for 301 performances between April 1963 and January 1964, and has been revived several times since, most notably in 2016.

Original playbill of this classic play. Octavo, original illustrated wrappers as issued. Presentation copy, inscribed by the lyricist Sheldon Harnick on the front panel, "For Peter: Sheldon Harnick 12/16/15." In near fine condition. Fiddler on the Roof is a musical with music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and book by Joseph Stein, set in the Pale of Settlement of Imperial Russia in 1905. It is based on Tevye and his Daughters (or Tevye the Dairyman) and other tales by Sholem Aleichem. The story centers on Tevye, the father of five daughters, and his attempts to maintain his Jewish religious and cultural traditions as outside influences encroach upon the family's lives. He must cope both with the strong-willed actions of his three older daughters, who wish to marry for love â" each one's choice of a husband moves further away from the customs of their Jewish faith and heritage â" and with the edict of the Tsar that evicts the Jews from their village. The original Broadway production of the show, which opened in 1964, had the first musical theatre run in history to surpass 3,000 performances. Fiddler held the record for the longest-running Broadway musical for almost 10 years until Grease surpassed its run. It remains the seventeenth longest-running show in Broadway history. The production was extraordinarily profitable and highly acclaimed. It won nine Tony Awards, including best musical, score, book, direction and choreography. It spawned five Broadway revivals and a highly successful 1971 film adaptation and has enjoyed enduring international popularity. It has also been a popular choice for school and community productions.
