http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/46699147

Carbon typescript, collating closely with the version of 'Babylon revisited' published in 'The Saturday evening post' (CCIII, 21 Feb. 1931). Substantial variations from the published text include several additional lines describing Josephine Baker, two additional lines (p. 34) describing the excesses of Paris, and the substitution of "Lincoln, Jr." for "Richard" beginning on p. 29. Minor variations from the published text are punctuatory or involve single words. Envelope addressed to Mrs. Newman Smith (Rosalind Sayre Smith, Fitzgerald's sister-in-law) accompanys typescript.
