    Description

    Up for auction is a hardcover first edition copy of The Little Foxes by Lillian Hellman - A Random House Play, copyright 1939.  It is in very good to excellent condition (I am not qualified to determine which) including the dust cover.  The book appears not to have been read as the spine does not appear to be broken.  The dust cover does have some discoloration and some minor tearing do to age.
    It is also inscribed, "To Bill Dozier - Kindest Regards - Tallulah Bankhead".  What makes this book interesting is the fact that Tallulah Bankhead was in the original cast of The Little Foxes when it opened on Broadway.  She won critical acclaim for her portrayal of Regina Giddens.  The book is inscribed to Bill Dozier who was a film and television producer who is known for producing the television series' Batman (with Adam West) and the Green Hornet.  Another interesting fact is that Bill Dozier cast Tallulah Bankhead as The Black Widow in the Batman series.  The Black Widow was the last performance by Tallulah Bankhead as she died shortly after in 1968.  Tallulah inscribed the book to Bill Dozier, however the inscription is not dated.
