Notes:
The British Art Center has a set of 11 copies of the dance card, 9 of which have the attached pencil. In all 11 copies, a program of 20 dances has been recorded (in a single hand), in pen and black ink. This program of dances includes five valses, four one-steps, four two-steps, four foxtrots, one Sir Roger, one Swedish dance, and one gallop (the concluding dance). The lines for "engagements" remain blank; presumably this set of dance cards went unused.
