Typescript draft of 'Old friends' by Sir James Matthew Barrie, annotated, apparently for the original production of March 1910., [1910, or before.]

 Item
Identifier: MS.6637
Scope and Contents From the Sub-Series:

There are indications that this group of manuscripts was corrected and annotated with the original production of March 1910 in mind. In particular, MS.6638 has no corrections in James Barrie's hand, but has many stage and lighting directions in another hand, probably that of the 'D. McRae' whose name is written on the cover label. It may well have been the electrician's or stage manager's copy.

Dates: [1910, or before.]
