Guy Floyd Steely was born in Watseka, Illinois in about 1871. He married Winnifred Darrough and the couple had one son, John Darrough (1903-1991). At various times in his life, Steely lived in Oak Park, Illinois (a Chicago suburb) and in New York City. He wrote human interest stories for The Inter Ocean in Chicago from 1896 to 1900 and worked for Ringling Brothers Circus as an advance press agent during his summers. Steely also wrote numerous plays and lyrics for musicals, several of which were produced at Chicago's Dearborn Theater, and a novel, Wally: a Story of the West (1911). Two of his plays, The Storks and The Forbidden Land, were also produced in New York. Steely died in Cleveland, Ohio on April 22, 1913 after an operation to treat appendicitis and is buried in Watseka, Illinois.
This collection consists primarily of manuscripts for Steely's plays, operas, melodramas, and books, posters for some of his shows, and scrapbooks containing clippings of newspaper articles he wrote for the The Inter Ocean and clippings documenting various of his productions. Also included is a set of sheet music (some written by Steely and his partner Frederic Chapin) and materials showing Steely's work as Ringling Brothers' advance press agent.
Series I: Biographical and Miscellaneous contains a photograph of Steely, two church programs, an ink drawing, newspaper articles discussing Steely's involvement with Ringling Brothers Circus, a letter from Ringling Brothers to Steely, and a book entitled The Lives of Noted Criminals.
Series II: Plays includes materials documenting Steely's dramas, comedies, farces, musicals, comic operas, and his own form: the storyette. Among these materials are original manuscripts, drafts, notes, promptbooks, sides, programs, research, and scene designs. These items date from 1901 to 1913.
Series III: Books houses manuscripts for an untitled work, Closet of Society, Scenario of the Twenty-Four-Hour Man (both handwritten notes and a complete manuscript), and Wally: A Story of the West (marked "original MS").
Series IV: Sheet Music consists primarily of pieces by other composers but includes six pieces by Steely: "Dancing with My Dinah," "My Little Lhassa Maid," "Good Night," "The Will-o'-the-Wisp," "When a Maiden Goes A-Fishing," and "My Dreamland Maid". Frederic Chapin composed the music to all six pieces. Also included are advertisements for Steely and Chapin's work clipped from unknown sources.
Series V: Scrapbooks houses four scrapbooks. Two of these scrapbooks contain clippings of Guy Steely's human interest stories published in The Inter Ocean from June 18, 1895 to April 22, 1901. The other two scrapbooks contain clippings regarding his plays. One is entirely devoted to The Forbidden Land; the other includes clippings for Hunting for Hawkins, The Grafter, The Storks, and The Forbidden Land.
Series VI: Posters consists of five items. Four advertise Hunting for Hawkins, including one 7' by 9'4" marquee poster. The fifth poster announces Steely's The Storks: A Music Fantasy.
