Arranged in four groups: I. Vocal scores (5). II. Librettos (12). III. Promptbooks (2). IV. Dialogue parts (1). The vocal scores are in Italian, German, and English. Two consist of manuscript and individual numbers by various publishers bound together. One score is by Breitkopf & Härtel, in German and Italian (Leipzig, 1826?, pl. no. 4259), one by Launer, in Italian (Paris, 1843?, pl. no. 3370), and one by Ricordi, in Italian (Milano, 1825?, pl. nos. 358, 2956-2981). The librettos are in English. Eight were published by Samuel French, New York, as number 164 of French's Standard Drama. They include the casts of the performances at Holiday St., Baltimore, 1839, Chesnut St., Philadelphia, 1840, and Barnum's Museum, 1856. Several copies carry the signature of E.A. McDowell. Three librettos are by the Ledger Job Printing Office, Philadelphia, 1867. They carry the signatures of Seguin and Mrs. Seguin. One libretto, by an undetermined publisher, bears the signature of W.H. Reeves, and carries a list of performers' names on the final page. The promptbooks are in English. One consists of the annotated libretto, published by Jos. Robinson, Baltimore, and carries the signature of Edward Seguin. Pasted inside the front cover is a sheet bearing the words "as performed at the National Theatre, Washington, April 21st, 1852," and a list of the cast. The other book consists of the libretto by French, New York, cut and pasted into a ledger. It bears the signature of E.A. McDowell. The dialogue part, for the role of Alidoro, is in English manuscript. It bears the name of H. Catlin, and the words "please return to Burton Stanley."
