About This Item
New York: Random House. Near Fine in Very Good+ dj. (c.1957). First Edition. Hardcover. [very nice copy with minimal shelfwear, very light age-toning to edges of text block; jacket lightly browned along spine and inner edges of flaps, shallow insect-nibbling along bottom edges of both flaps]. (B&W photographs) Charming musical about a telephone answering service girl who gets romantically involved with one of her clients. Judy Holliday repeated her Broadway role for the 1960 Vincente Minnelli-directed film version. (The copyright page states that "the music by Jule Styne is not included in this book"; the lyrics are, however.) .
