    Description

    Here are 7 rare hardcover libretto books of musicals of the 1960s-1990s made famous by Stephen Sondheim. Included:
    Anyone Can Whistle, Sweeney Todd The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
    ,
    Sunday in the Park with George, Follies, Company, Assassins,
    and
    A Little Night Music
    . The books, overall, are in very good shape. Bindings are tight and there are no loose or torn pages. There are photos of the original productions in all of the books, except for Company. Dust jackets are pretty good with minor yellowing or some ragged edges. Company and Anyone Can Whistle have very minor tears at the top of the jacket on the spine. FOLLIES has yellowing on the inside front and back covers, probably from newspapers that were folded inside for years, and yellowed.
    Assassins
    jacket has a very small chip/tear on the bottom front. Some discoloration on the edges of
    then
    pages, and the insides. I'm guessing there weren't many of these September 1991 First Editions printed. Some of the book have got the odd pencil mark for the price, or bookstore stamp, but they're nice, and rare to have them all together like this.
