Cardiff: December 1924.' There are thirty-five names signed to the dedication plate, most likely with association to Macdonald's ministry and the Labour Party.The signature of Sybil Thorndike is below the date on the dedication plate, insinuating this was signed afterwards.A fantastic copy of this play.
