Softcover. Zustand: Very Good-. Later Printing. [minor wear to extremities, spine somewhat browned, old selling price of $1.00 rubber-stamped at upper corner of front cover, some pencil annotations throughout Act 1]. (B&W photo frontispiece) Classic "big house" melodrama, focusing on a group of prisoners on Death Row in a Federal prison in Oklahoma. Spencer Tracy's starring performance in the original Broadway production led directly to his first Hollywood contract, although when the play was filmed in 1932 the role went to Preston Foster (and subsequently to Mickey Rooney when the picture was remade in 1959). Playwright Wexley made his way to Hollywood, too, and garnered a few notable screenwriting credits before his politics caught up with him (he was a Communist Party member) and he was blacklisted in the late 1940s. The book's preface is by Lewis E. Lawes, Warden of Sing Sing Prison since 1920, who wrote numerous books on penal-related topics, most notably "Twenty Thousand Years in Sing Sing" (1932). This printing probably dates from the late 1930s; the cover design is identical to the first softcover printing, but in this book both "They Shall Not Die" (1934) and "Steel" (1937) are listed as the playwright's other works. Also: unlike the first printing, which was illustrated with three black-and-white stills from the original production, this copy has only a single photo as the frontispiece.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. (patterned paper-covered boards; no dust jacket) [slight bumping to bottom corners, some fading to spine, tiny tear at top of spine; firmly bound and internally clean]. Dramatization of the Scottsboro Boys case and trial, by a playwright who went on to a relatively brief screenwriting career before his political associations caught up with him and got him blacklisted. The original Broadway production starred Claude Rains as attorney "Nathan G. Rubin," a fictionalized version of Samuel Leibowitz; also in the cast were Tom Ewell, Ruth Gordon, Dean Jagger and Erskine Sanford. Wexley had previously scored a hit with his prison drama "The Last Mile," which was filmed twice, in 1932 and 1959.
