Condizione: Good. New York, December 4, 1948., 1948. Good. - A photograph album consisting of thirty 10 inch high by 8 inch wide glossy black & white photographs housed in plastic sleeves housed in a 11-1/2 inch high by 9-1/4 inch wide black calf bound photograph album, titled with Jean Dalrymple's name in gilt on the front cover. The edges of the leather covers are heavily rubbed & scuffed and the album's spine has perished and is thus lacking. 3 masking tape strips adhere to the inner edges of the front & rear covers. The Broadway play adapted by screenwriter & playwright Daniel Taradash from Jean-Paul Sartre's "Les Mains Sales" opened on December 4, 1948 at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre. The photographs include 5 by Stan Lee, Graphic House (not to be confused with the Marvel comic book creator & artist), 8 by Stork Club News Service, 1 by Fritz Hock PIX Inc., and 16 where the photographer is unidentified. Included is a photo of the director Jed Harris seated at a table with the playwright Daniel Taradash and producer Jean Dalrymple in the background. Two photos are portraits of Jed Harris, another depicts Jean Dalrymple with Jed Harris and an unidentified woman watching a rehearsal. There is an attractive portrait of the seated star Charles Boyer and another full-length portrait of Boyer, the other 2 stars of the play, John Dall and Joan Tetzel are portrayed seated at a desk with open scripts. There are profuse photos of New York Society figures attending the play's opening, some of which include Jean Dalrymple. The album is presented to producer Jean Dalrymple at the top of the chipped gray endpaper page "For / Jean Dalrymple / A souvenir / from Her [____?] Staff", and signed in full by Jed Harris at the bottom of that leaf. Harris has further annotated the last blank page in ink "Closing Night / Why no photos - ? / Jed H.". The photos are in very good to fine condition though the sheets of gray paper backing them are quite chipped. The play "Red Gloves" starring John Dall and Charles Boyer opened on December 4, 1948, and although unsuccessful (it closed after a short run on March 12, 1949), it had previously drawn attention when Sartre successfully sued his publisher-agent Louis Nagel for supposedly authorizing the English adaptation without his permission. Despite Sartre's denial, the play's director Jed Harris declared that he was present in Paris when Sartre granted Jean Dalrymple and Gabriel Pascal, owners of the American and English rights, complete carte blanche for the American Adaptation. The Austrian-born American theatrical producer and director Jed Harris (1900-1979) was highly acclaimed for his successful Broadway productions of "Coquette", "The Front Page", "Uncle Vanya", "Our Town", and "The Crucible" among others. His productions earned 7 awards, including a Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize for playwright Thornton Wilder. He was described by the New York Times as "a flamboyant man of intermittent charm". The playwright and director George S. Kaufman, who twice worked with him, hated him and once said "When I die, I want to be cremated and have my ashes thrown in Jed Harris's face". Stars such as Katherine Hepburn and Laurence Olivier loathed him, yet aspiring playwrights hoped he'd do their plays. The American actress Joan Tetzel (1921-1977) made her film debut in "Duel in the Sun" and performed in Alfred Hitchcock's "The Paradine Case" among other movies. The American stage actor John Dall (1920-1971) is best remembered for his film role portraying the intellectual killer in Alfred Hitchcock's "Rope" and for his role in the film noir "Gun Crazy" as well as "Spartacus". The celebrated French-American actor Charles Boyer (1899-1978) appeared in over 80 films, including "The Garden of Allah", "Algiers", "Love Affair" and Gaslight". He also played himself in the sitcom "I Love Lucy". "Red Gloves" was his first Broadway appearance. Though not here pictured, the play was the only Broadway appearance of Dick Martin (1922-2008), known for his role in the comedy program "Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In". Jean Dalrymple (1902-1998) was the dynamic producer and director of theater and light-opera at Manhattan's City Center. Dalrymple began her career in Vaudeville, appearing with James Cagney and Carey Grant in the early 1930s. She was a founding member of the American Theatre Wing, the theatre service organization. She worked over the years as a personal manager for the likes of Leopold Stokowski, Mary Martin, Jos Iturbi, Andre Kostalanetz, Nathan Milstein, and Lily Pons. She began her work at City Center with its founding in 1943, serving as a board member and publicist. Her productions there from the 1940s through the 1960s were a revitalizing influence on the whole New York theatre scene.
