American actor Joseph Jefferson (1829-1905), was the foremost of an old and distinguished family of English and American actors. Having spent the first 20 years of his life as a strolling player, his fame came with his creation of the role of Rip Van Winkle in a dramatization of Washington Irving's story. He infused the character with human tenderness and dignity, while heightening the fairy tale elements of the play. Almost as famous was his interpretation of Bob Acres in The Rivals (see No. 202), a part he played hundreds of times. McManus created this picture book to commemorate the actor’s portrayal of Van Winkle in what is exclusively referred to here as "his play.”
