Erste amerikanische Ausgabe, erschien im gleichen Jahr in England. Das Vorsatzblatt und der Vortitel mit einer dreiseitigen, eigenhändigen Erinnerung von Marlene Dietrich an ihren langjährigen Freund und Kollegen Noel Coward: "When he introduced my performance at the Café de Paris in London it seemed to me as if a king had stepped down from his throne to help up a fallen commoner. We were friends for many, many years. Not even our travelling to many different countries could divide us! After his coming to rest in Switzerland I almost lived there between my professional escapes. I relied on his advice and I always felt guilty that I could do nothing in return. He insisted though, that my presence, near or far, had become a necessity for him, his mind, his phantasies! Maybe he made this up in order to minimize my gulit. I am grateful that I was not there when he died! My usual courage failed. Marlene Dietrich". Zustand: Seite 93 mit kleiner Läsur im weißen Rand, der Schutzumschlag mit kleinen Randläsuren.
