Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine dj. Book Club Edition. [nice tight clean book, with no discernible wear; the jacket is also nice and clean, with just a bit of browning and slight deterioration along top edge of front flap]. (B&W photographs) The musical version of Billy Wilder's Oscar-winning 1960 film THE APARTMENT. The original Broadway production, which starred Jerry Orbach (in the Jack Lemmon role as the poor schnook with the over-leveraged apartment), ran for 1,281 performances over the course of four seasons. NOTE that this edition (as per usual practice) includes the song lyrics but NOT the actual music.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine dj. Book Club Edition. [a touch of wear to base of spine, one-time owner's address label on front endpaper; jacket slightly browned along spine, minor wear to extremities]. (B&W photographs) One of the great musicals of the 1960's, adapted from Federico Fellini's film "Nights of Cabiria." A triumph for choreographer Bob Fosse on the stage, less so in his 1969 screen adaptation (which substituted Shirley MacLaine for Gwen Verdon).

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good+ dj. 1st Edition (see note). [a very nice copy, tight and clean with just a touch of wear at the spine ends; jacket a little rubbed on the front panel, very light wear to extremities, tiny closed tear at upper left of front panel]. (B&W photographs) One of the great musicals of the 1960s, adapted from Federico Fellini's film "Nights of Cabiria." It was a triumph for choreographer Bob Fosse on the stage, but a little less so in his 1969 screen adaptation (which substituted Shirley MacLaine for Gwen Verdon). [NOTE: Although there is no "first printing" or "first edition" statement in this copy of the book, I believe it to be such, and to therefore constitute an exception to the usual Random House practice for their published plays. The printed price ($3.95) is present on the front jacket flap, along with the printing code 10/66 at the bottom corner of the flap. In addition, this was part of a collection in which nearly all the published plays were review copies, with publisher's slips to document the fact; although there is no slip present in this copy, I believe it to also be a review copy. If someone can show me evidence of a copy that states "first printing," however, I will happily stand corrected.].
