"Copyright, 1914, 1916, by Edward Knoblauch."
"'My Lady's Dress,' first produced in England, at the Royal Theatre in London, April 21, 1914, and, in New York, at the Playhouse, on October 10th of the same year ... Mr. Knoblauch has here provided us with an unusual and interesting experiment in modern dramatic technique, for 'My Lady's Dress' also belongs to the somewhat small group of plays comprising 'a play within a play,' or rather, in this particular case, several plays within a play!"--Introduction.
Brown paper boards with cream paper labels printed in black and ruled in red on front cover and spine.
