First Edition (but for Heinemann s U.K. edition of the required dozen copies, issued only to secure copyright) of the classic drama, internationally acknowledged as one of the highspots of world theater. Although Ibsen was, of course, Norwegian, the First Edition was published in Danish. A lovely, certainly better than very good copy, presented in a custom clamshell box. A highly sought after, much valued and extremely scarce collectible.

Hedda Gabler is a play by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen. The play premiered in 1891 and has since become one of Ibsen's most notable works. It centers on the life of Hedda Gabler, an aristocratic woman trapped in a conventional society.
