Consists of manuscripts of three plays and an introduction compiled by James Boyd. The scripts were written as American propaganda plays and presented over CBS in the spring of 1941. Includes Boyd's "One More Free Man" (final title) and a mimeographed copy of Orson Welles's "His Honor, the Mayor" (annotated, probably by Boyd). The third play, "Above Suspicion," is ascribed to Sherwood Anderson although the play was not completed at his death. Anderson's idea was developed by the company and the play was presented in tribute to him.
