A Comedy for Two by George R Chester
The barber shop narrator recounts a comic plot involving a Manicure Girl and a nightclub type, as a young man pursues Grace and a wealthy older suitor. A staged theater note leads to a supper ruse at Charleys and a wedding scene with Grace’s mother, ending with the manicure girl matching a Yank social illusion.
