Although no reviews of this production have yet been located, the Nat Phillips Collection holds two scripts (Lulu and Oh Mabel) that appear to be related. In this respect, it appears that the work was originally titled Lulu but later changed or cribbed by Nat Phillips as Oh Mabel before being eventually titled Meet Mabel.

The characters who appear in both manuscript versions are Germaine (aka Germain), Mr Flannigan (aka Pat Flannigan), and The Count (aka Count Boulevarde). The Lulu manuscript includes Thomas Smith, Piquart, Lulu, Mimi, Mrs Cohen, and Mr Cohen, while the Oh Mabel manuscript includes Mrs Flannigan, 'Erb, Jack, and Clarice. Several of these characters are believed to be the same, just with different names.
