TENNESSEE WILLIAMS, Thomas Lanier Williams III
Tennessee Williams Group of Signed Checks for the year 1978.
The group of ten personal checks, dated from January to November 1978, offers a window into Williams' activity during that time. Several checks were paid to a French restaurant, one to a hospital and several to other bank accounts. Williams is considered on of America's most important dramatists. He won the Pulitzer Prize for "A Streetcar Named Desire" in 1948 and for "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" in 1955. In addition, "The Glass Menagerie" (1945) and "The Night of the Iguana" (1961) received New York Drama Critics' Circle Awards. His 1952 play, "The Rose Tattoo," received the Tony Award for best play. He moved to New Orleans in 1939 and changed his name to "Tennessee" for the state of his father's birth. Williams signs each check in full, "Tennessee Williams" under his printed name. We typically sell Williams' checks for $120-$150. We offer this group for $800/NET.
