Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'An Errand for Polly' is a delightful musical comedy that captures the vibrant spirit and lighthearted charm of the mid-1920s American stage. Written by the prolific playwright and lyricist William Cary Duncan, the work follows the spirited protagonist, Polly, as she navigates a series of whimsical adventures and romantic entanglements. The play is characterized by its witty dialogue, engaging lyrical structure, and the upbeat energy typical of musical theater from this era.As a notable example of early 20th-century entertainment, the story emphasizes themes of youthful optimism and the comedic misunderstandings that often precede a happy resolution. Duncan's skill in crafting relatable yet entertaining characters shines through Polly's journey, making it a compelling read for those interested in the history of American drama and the evolution of the musical stage.

Popular American librettist who worked with Oscar Hammerstein on one stage score, with Hammerstein's frequent collaborator Otto Harbach on Rudolf Friml's 1922 musical comedy "The Blue Kitten," etc. TMS, 1p, 8½" X 11", n.p., n.y. Near fine. Double-spaced typescript of one page from an unidentified work, possibly a musical comedy -- a dialogue between Polly and Douglas. Duncan has pencilled out words and phrases here and there, changed a word. He signs boldly in ink near the bottom. This came from the collection of Albert Johannsen, author of "The House of Beadle and Adams and Its Dime and Nickel Novels" (University of Oklahoma Press, 1950), the definitive reference work and bibliography on the subject. Johannsen's original 8½" X 11" file folder, bearing his printed "Collection of Albert Johannsen" label (partly filled in by Johannsen), accompanies this item. Johannsen was fond of requesting working manuscript pages from authors -- this Duncan leaf is clearly one such example. Most unusual and attractive -- and worthy of further research.…
