Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Hilton, James (and Barbara Burnham). GOOD-BYE MR. CHIPS: a Play in Three acts. Based upon the novel of the same name by James Hilton London: Hodder & Stoughton, (1938). First Edition. A FINE copy (touch of fading to the fore-edge of the upper board) in a NEAR FINE original priced dust jacket (a trifle age-toned -- as all copies we've seen over the years). Nice example with plenty of eye appeal. This play version of Goodbye, Mr. Chips was first presented in London at the Shaftesbury Theatre on September 23, 1938. The cast included Leslie Banks (as Mr. Chips) and Constance Cummings (as Kathie), Nigel Stock, Charles Quartermaine and Wilfred Babbage. A West End triumph, its success helped lead up to the famous film version in 1939. Previous owner has penciled light checks beside the cast list. Hard to find a better copy of this attractive publication.
