193520818London: Victor Gollancz Ltd. Near Fine in Very Good dj. 1935. First Edition. Hardcover. NOISBN . minimal wear to book; jacket a bit soiled but otherwise unworn. Translation and adaptation of a German play a drawing-room comedy about some French aristocrats. Presented in London at the Ambassadors Theatre in 1935 it was notable as the first big success of Vivien Leigh who appeared in the role of Henriette Duquesnoy garnering excellent notices and much subsequent press attention. The latter was doubtlessly tied in with the promotional efforts of film producer Alexander Korda who signed her to a contract after seeing her performance on opening night having failed to discern her potential at an earlier meeting. Reportedly and even more fatefully it was in this play that she was first seen by Laurence Olivier later to become her lover and then husband. . Victor Gollancz Ltd hardcover books

15985NATIONAL UNION OF WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE SOCIETIES. PROGRAMME. National Union Women's Suffrage Societies. Men's League. Women's Suffrage Portsmouth n.d. but 1908. <br/><br/>Broadside 335mm x 208mm printed on recto onfy; alittle foxed and with creases where folded but still a remarkable survival. Programme for an evening meeting that began with a musical recital followed by the singing of suffrage songs the words are printed - one of them is by Margaret O'Shea sister of the secretary of the Portsmouth NUWSS societyand then a speech by Lady<br/>Balfour followed by more singing before a rousing closing speech by Alice Abadam Interestingly the 'Vote of Thanks' is seconded by Alderman Sanders LCC who in 1908 was Labour parliamentary candidate for Portsmouth and whose wife Beatrice was financial secretary to the WSPU. We believe this programme may date from 1908 - because there is a mention at its foot of an Exhibition of Banners Fuller's tea Rooms Palmerston Road - and such exhibitions were common after the June 1908 Hyde Park rally. unknown books
