Announcement: New York Clipper, 27 December 1873, 310.
The page number at the upper left reads 810, but that is clearly a typo and should read 310. “‘Cinderella’ is to form the holiday attraction at Bryant’s Minstrels, where the attendance has continued quite large since our last report, although but few changes have been made in the programme.”

Review: New York Clipper, 03 January 1874, 318.
Praises Cinderella. “…The other changes in the programme consisted of a medley overture and ‘In the Hardware Line,’ sung by Dave Reed, the revival of the sketch called ‘The Carte de Visite,’ and a violoncello solo performed by Karl Steele.”
