Loosely laid in to this copy is a folded sheet of paper headed with a printed monogram and address "Heronden House / Belgrave Square". As this is the fictional address of the central characters in the play the Marquess and Marchioness of Heronden there is no such house in Belgrave Square it is likely that this item of stationery is a stage prop a letter left for the Marchioness by her husband plays a significant part in the plot.
