Hardcover. Zustand: Good. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, privately bound program from what appears to be the 1900 version of the play. With the description on the front end page stating this was created for a theater party by Dr. and Mrs. E N Clapper, March 21, 1928, at the Alumni Theater of Pittsburgh. There is no publication date listed (ca. 1900) though it can be determined by the portion near the end of the play where the exchange between the General, Police, King and girls regarding the nobleman was deleted and the phrase "We charge you yield, and Queen Victoria's name!" is present. This was changed to read "in good King Edward's name" for the 1908 production. The bound softcover program is complete, including both the front and rear cover. There is no other handwriting other than what is on the front end page. There was also a bookplate on the front pastedown from Charles Wayne Collins with the Latin phrase "Cogitat Ergo Sum" present. The exterior boards show quite a bit of edge wear, particularly on the top of the front and outside corners. The interior binding is good no issues other than some smudge marks and toning. There is a very slight soft vertical fold from where the program was still in the softcover state. The exterior grades below good condition but the interior makes up for it as program itself grades as VG.
