1 leaf. An early draft, probably the first, of this broadside by James Joyce. An autograph manuscript in pencil beginning with the line, "To show you for strictures I don't care a button." The title, "Falconer addresses the Vigilance Committee," appears on the right-hand margin. The text is on the verso of the second leaf of a printed form of an empty royalty agreement from Maunsel and Co., Ltd., on a wove double-leaf. Scholes 46.

1 leaf. "Written in the train between Flushing and Salzburg." A later draft of this broadside. Autograph manuscript in pencil with ink corrections of the entire 98 line poem. The paper used for this draft was originally a typed copy of an agreement (unsigned) between Joyce and the Maunsel firm. Scholes 47.

1 leaf. Written in Flushing. Fair copy of the broadside by James Joyce. An autograph manuscript of the entire poem in ink in an especially legible hand. There are a few changes in ink in the text of the poem. Scholes 48.

Written in Trieste. 1 leaf. This broadside was printed in Trieste in an edition of 100 copies. 40 of these were sent to Charles Joyce for distribution in Dublin. This photostat shows a hand-written note added in ink by Joyce dated July 1912.

1 leaf. Autograph manuscript written on one side of a leaf of white wove paper. Corrections are in ink in the left margin. In the upper corner is the number 11 in pencil. This is the page 11 that is missing from Slocum E17a and from the published version in Critical Writings. Scholes 42.

62 pages on 60 leaves. Written in Trieste. Likely for preparation of a series of lectures by Joyce on Hamlet in 1912. This autograph manuscript consists largely of historical and literary excerpts to be used in reference to specific acts and scenes of the play. Some material is marked for use in an introduction and a conclusion. Two pages consist of notes that seem separate from the excerpts. Not in Scholes.

1 leaf. Written in Trieste. Fragment of manuscript with printer's slip attached. This autograph manuscript is the last page of the final draft, numbered "4" in pencil.

Smolars, with the notation (among others) that 100 copies were to be printed. Scholes 26.
