By Press Eldridge
New York and London: Samuel French, 1911. Original wraps. Very Good +. A surprisingly crisp, well-preserved example of the 1911 1st (and probably only) edition of this uncommon how-to on staging a minstrel show. Clean and VG+ to Near Fine in its stapled red wrappers. A bit of very light wear to the front panel's edges, otherwise the fragile booklet is clean as could be. Also includes wonderful minstrel-related ads at the rear as well as a list of other recent titles by the publisher Samuel French.
