3 The collection is documented in “Chinese Folk Entertainment: A Collection of Tapes with Matching Texts,” CHINOPERL Papers 4.1 (1974). The texts seem to survive in the Harvard University library system, but not the tapes.

5 Since the special issue in 2007, Kate Stevens published the annotated translation “An Excerpt from Journey to the West in Fast Bamboo Clapper-Style Tale,” in The Columbia Anthology of Chinese Folk and Popular Literature, eds. Victor Mair and Mark Bender  (New York: Columbia University Press, 2011), pp. 420–28.
