This special early 1900s London Hippodrome theatre programme presents a mainly Italian variety show of classical music and dance, followed by the first production of a new comic operetta, Arms and the Girl.

The golden embossed blue card cover still retains seal; the programme includes photographs of the above list of main performers and has a fascinating range of advertisments, some illustrated, as detailed editorials or directory. The

Also included is an insert of the cast and synopsis of Feudalismo, one of the Italian performances.

16 internal pages; approx 25.5cms x 11.5cms. Insert approx 25cms x 10cms.

 

Condition Code: 4: The stiff card cover has done an excellent job of protecting the internal pages which are smooth clean and have minimal evidence of any handling. No nicks, tears or folds; staples rusty but pages intact and firmly secure due to a previous, discreet preservation repair of tape over the staples on the centre pages.
