The lead character is based on Washington, D.C. hostess and Democratic Party fundraiser Perle Mesta, who was appointed Ambassador to Luxembourg in 1949. The Playbill distributed at each performance humorously noted that "neither the character of Mrs. Sally Adams nor Miss Ethel Merman resemble any person living or dead."

The Playbill is in a sealed envelope and did not open the seal.  It looks in great shape.  It did not qualify for Media Mail, since it contains advertising, which would be collectible in its own right.
