The committe : a comedy / written by the Honourable Sr Robert Howard. 1664.

Contemporary manuscript transcription of Sir Robert Howard's play The committee, which was never published separately, but appeared first in his Foure new plays (1665). Most of this manuscript appears to have been written by Howard himself -- particularly the title page, list of persons and parts of Acts I and III. The rest of the transcription was written by an amanuensis. For more information, see note of 14 October 1960 from dealer H.W. Edwards in the Clark Library institutional archive.

[6], 65 p., bound ; 25 cm.
