Add to basketTypescript, signed by the author on the title page of "Landscape". These two short plays were first staged by the Royal Shakespeare Company on 2 July 1969. "Landscape" had previously been broadcast on radio on 25 April 1968. Both were published, together with "Night", as Landscape and Silence in 1969. There are minor textual differences between this script and the published volume. This copy, numbered "#18" on the first sheet, appears to be for a U.S. production. The volume comprises a title-page for "Landscape", a listing of cast and setting on one leaf, a note, 14 pages of script, one dividing leaf, a title-page for "Silence", a listing of cast and setting on one leaf, and 14 pages of script. Folio. 34 leaves (280 x 216 mm), printed on rectos only, dividing blank leaf on blue paper. Original blue wrappers, front wrapper lettered in gilt comprising title, and "studio duplicating service, inc." name and address, two split pins. Spine and extremities a little worn, some creases to wrappers: a very good copy.
