Summary[edit]

Description

Promotional poster for the Broadway musical revue and comedy Have you seen Smith? featuring a police officer measuring a lady's skirt length while her curious friends look on, with a group of men playing the game "Hit a Spaniard", boardwalk flaneurs and a beach scene in the background. Text: "Have you seen Smith? A famous fabric of fun. Spectacular scenes and sights down on the Jersey coast." Written by Scott Marble, the play opened at the Star Theatre on 3 October 1898.

From Gerald Bordman's American Theatre: Scott Marble's name was synomymous with touring American melodrama, but devotees were in for a surprise at his Have You Seen Smith? (10-3-98, Star), since his comic saga of A. Bleeker Knight and I. Work Days, divorced men who have married each other's ex-wives, was so filled with musical numbers that most reviewers considered it a musical.
