The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie
London: Macmillan & Co, (1961).
Price: $250.00
Softcover. Uncorrected proof. Printed orange wrappers. A little spine-cocked, else near fine. Basis for the stage version with Vanessa Redgrave and then the film starring Maggie Smith, who won a Best Actress Oscar for the title role of the flamboyant but flawed Scottish schoolteacher. A very nice copy of the uncommon proof.
