There are two more legal sized typed book reviews laid inside the back cover. The typed label in all caps reads - "Jerome Lawrence's Actor is that rare theatrical which not only recreates the past on stage and screen in vibrant and endearing terms but also goes beyond the Star at Its Center to Offer Us A Warm and Perceptive Portrait of the "Mensch" at the core. It's a clear eyed and affectionate work, jam-packed with the names, anecdotes and gossip that made Milieu irresistible and its protagonist a man worthy of the mark he made on all of us. - Critic Judith Crist." This copy is signed and inscribed to the previous owner on the right front flyleaf.
