This is a sort of Librivox- adjacent topic -- Walter Watts was a Victorian-Era Theater Manager and playwright who I am researching. I have put together recordings of a couple of his plays here at Librivox -- "An Irish Engagement" and "Which is the King?" I've just finished transcribing one of his plays that is only available as a handwritten manuscript -- a short, one-act farce titled "The First Night of My Wedding."
The handwriting is fairly clear, but I ended up having to make guesses about several words and a lot of the punctuation. I used published versions of Watts' other plays as a model for formatting.
I would love to have feedback from anyone who would care to look at the handwritten original --(located here: https://archive.org/details/first-night-of-my-wedding )
and compare it to my transcription -- (located here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hB-m_3CWfs4nUesOGKMKkg9dMB1BbiBwIGn4WfQjeN8/edit?usp=sharing )
before I post it to my blog and website.
Thanks in advance!
