Two of the promptbooks are based on the Ditson score and include pages of mansucript notes interleaved with the music. A third promptbook is based on a 1913 edition of the Ditson score and also includes pages of manuscript. Two promptbooks are typescript and are identified as the "Broadhurst version."
