Hickman is known for directing many plays in London throughout the 1950s, includingThe Merry Widow (1958),Theatre Night (1957) andWater Gipsies(1955).A truly unique piece of memorabilia from this entertaining 1950s play. Handsomely bound in full green calf, with the gilt initials 'C.H.' to the rear of the front board. Externally, smart, with some light darkening to the spine and light rubbing to the joints and extremities. Internally, firmly bound. The odd spot to the pages and fore-edge, which are otherwise bright and clean throughout. Very Good.
