An album of three double-sided 12-inch records containing talks by Edward Gordon Craig, recorded for the BBC between 1951 and 1961, and an accompanying brochure. The album was created by Discurio (London: 1962) and was available through subscription. The publication was timed to coincide with Craig’s 90th birthday and Craig designed the cover.

‘Irving’s Way’
‘On the Old School of Acting’
‘Isadora Duncan’
‘A Note on Masks’
‘Celebrities I have met’
