Arranged in three groups: I. Vocal scores (8). II. Orchestra parts (10). III. Promptbooks (10). Vocal scores represent two editions (104 and 117 p.) published by M. Witmark (New York, c1903). Two copies are "conductor's" scores, (one for the revised version), which contain additional manuscript music bound in and also show performance cuts. The incomplete set of orchestra parts (also published by Witmark, pl.no. 753-39) is for a "Selection" from the show. Promptbooks are typescript and include a variety of editions: the 1904 edition, the corrected edition, the revised edition (all three copies of which contain a photo showing a score from the prologue pasted in), and a copy marked "do not use this version."
