1973142419New York: Wroderick Productions 1973.

Coward's original script was basis for the 1933 film directed by Herbert Wilcox and the 1940 film directed by WS Van Dyke. The Van Dyke film was so disliked by Coward that he vowed to never let Hollywood adapt one of his works again. <br/><br/>Adaptation writer/actor Roderick Cook worked extensively with Coward's material his best-known work being a highly well-received 1972 musical review of Coward's work entitled "Oh Coward!" While it is believed that Cook's adaptation of "Bitter Sweet" was never performed professionally and the material in this script was not utilized in "Oh Coward!" it was likely written after Cook's considerable success with the review encouraged him to take another look at Coward's oeuvre. <br/><br/>Set in London and Vienna. <br/><br/>Pink titled wrappers with credits for playwright Noel Coward and adaptation writer Roderick Cook.

1940300149Old Tymes 1940. fine. Very scarce A.L.S. 8vo. 1 page Old Tymes Connecticut November 11 1940 less than one year after the success of Oz and only one year before he would join the Canadian Navy during World War II in full: "Many thanks for your letter and the contracts. I do not see any objection to the terms there-in but UI would prefer to wait until the outcome of the Walm's deal with Hirsch is settled before I sign it. At the moment I am entirely on the hope that the option will expire on December 23rd with the play unproduced but I cannot lose sight of the fact that Hirsch may be able to promote a production". When Langley came out of the Canadian military following World War II he went to England and worked on several screenplays with luke-warm success. He became a United States citizen in 1961 and soon thereafter worked part-time as a drug counselor in California. Boldly signed and in excellent condition. From the archives of Samuel French & Son's.<br/><br/> LANGLEY Noel - 1911 - 1970 South African playwright best remembered as the 26 year old writer of the screenplay for the 1939 classic film The Wizard of Oz - and is one of the three credited screenwriters of the film. Langley literally ditched half of Frank Baum's book and added such important original concepts as the Ruby Red Slippers; instead of two good witches he amalgamated the Good Witch of the North with Glinda into one character. In Baum's book Dorothy encounters many threats to her safety - but in the screenplay Langley turned the wicked witch of the West into Dorothy's sole adversary. Most important he introduced to the story the inclusion of the actors playing the Tin Man Scarecrow and Cowardly Lion as farmhands and family in the sepia-tone Kansas sequence as well as introducing Miss Almira Gulch the Wicked Witch's counterpart. By doing this Langley created the continuity that bridged the characters as "real" people in Kansas to their roles in the Land of Oz; something that Baum could never perceive.<br/><br/> unknown books

Addressed to a young admirer Robert Bishop Coward writes: "I was very interested to get your nice letter. I had a miniature theater when I was younger than you & I have never forgotten all the pleasure it gave me. "I think taken all round it is a good plan to go to a training school such as Italia Conti - although I did not do so myself.
