Description: First edition, signed limited issue, number 417 of 775 copies signed and numbered by the author, the first 25 of which were not for sale. Lazarus Laughed premiered at the Pasadena Playhouse in California in 1928, with more than 100 actors playing over 400 roles. "Being the first man to return from the realm whose boundary is never supposed to be recrossed, the multitude hangs upon Lazarus' words. He tells them that there is no death - only God's eternal laughter. That is the burden of the whole play. The succeeding scenes represent a series of tests by the Jews, Romans and Greeks to try Lazarus' faith. In turn the various members of his family are taken from him, but he continues ever to laugh, even to the end when Emperor Tiberius has him burned at the stake" (Stechan). H. O. Stechan, "Lazarus Laughed [Review]", Pasadena Community Playhouse, 9 April 1928. Octavo. Original quarter vellum, purple and cream patterned cloth sides, paper spine label, edges unopened and untrimmed. Housed in the original black card slipcase with title label. Title page printed in purple. Binding square and firm, spine toned, contents crisp. A very good copy indeed, in the slipcase with rubbed and worn edges.
