ASK A QUESTION
The Blood of the Bambergs is a satirical account of a royal wedding. The second play, Under Plain Cover, depicts a marriage in crisis that becomes a tabloid 'human interest' story. Both plays were first staged as a double bill at the Royal Court Theatre in London in 1962.

First edition, first impression; 8vo; bookseller's label to front pastedown, else unmarked internally; publisher's red cloth, white lettering to spine, with the unclipped dust-jacket, slight dust-soiling, very slightly toned, else very good.
