Beschreibung

Single sheet folio playbill, printed in red & black; tiny tear at head, neatly repaired from behind. 25 x 50cm. For this performance, the playbill was amended to show Mr. [Walter] Lacy 'of the London Theatres' in the part of Hardman, owing to the 'unavoidable absence of Mr. John Forster'. The performance was very well received in Liverpool; Dickens reported back to Bulwer Lytton, in a letter dated February 15th, 'I can scarcely see to write - but I cannot go to bed without telling you what a triumph we have had'.
