Lightly toned, minor wear inside wrappers. 1976 Trade Paperback. 145, [3], 31, [3], 6 pp. A play developed from a short story. It was Fitzgerald's only play, and was published two years before The Great Gatsby, which was his most popular work. Scribner printed 7650 copies, but the play was not a commercial success, despite showcasing Fitzgerald's facility with dialogue. Still a must for the serious Fitzgerald collector.
