Edition (there was no published trade edition). 67pp. in publisher's original perfect-bound cream-colored wraps as issued. 9.74" by 7.5." Wrappers somewhat finger-soiled with revised price 3/-" sticker on upper cover. Rare; WorldCat locates only seven institutional copies. [WITH:] Original opening run program from London's Palace Theatre dated 30th September 1935. This program is also exceedingly uncommon. ANYTHING GOES is one of the most endearing and enduring musical comedies of the 1930s; many of Cole Porter's songs from this play have become standards. The play itself continues to be performed worldwide with the major songs "I Get A Kick Out Of You" and "You're The Top" retaining their charm and popularity ninety years later. Adapted into the 1936 film starring Ethel Merman, Bing Crosby, and Donald O'Connor. Recently re-made in 2021 with Sutton Foster in the lead. An important addition to any collection of American Musical Theater.…
