Florodora, Music by Leslie Stuart Book by Owen Hall, Lyrics by E. Boyd-Jones and Paul Rubens, Francis, Day & Hunter, 1899, 224pp. Composed by Leslie Stuart, the musical was so popular that it now has its own Wikipedia page.

Quoted as being' one of the first successful Broadway musicals of the 20th century', Florodora ran for more than 550 shows in NY. This was the first time a British musical had performed so well in the States and the show went on to tour worldwide. Leslie Stuart also saw success with other musicals, including The Silver Slipper, The School Girl, The Belle of Mayfair and Havana And this was almost certainly Stuart's own copy of his best-known musical. With a signature on the title page and nearly hundreds of examples of editing, this is a stunning find. From edits to annotations, this was clearly a book that was integral to the play.

There are tips for dance moves, key lines and much more. A truly museum-worthy piece, documenting the mind behind one of music's most acclaimed musical composers. Covers worn with stain to front. Some pages removed by Stuart. Heavily;y used and hugely important copy.
