This magnificent volume conveys a vivid picture of turn of the century theatre history. It is also a very rare and hefty example of Edwardian book production. Heavy boards, with generously bevelled edges, and a splendid Art Nouveau design in black, ochre, and gilt. The 48 full page illustrations are tipped in and tissue guarded, and produced by what looks like a series of delicate but coloured photographs. As a history of the British Theatre of its time it is invaluable, because each player is listed with their most celebrated perfomances. Frustratingly, no author is credited and there is no introduction or clear date for this book, so 1902 looks most likely through performance dates mentioned in the texts. All tissue guards are present. Black edges to the text block. The magnificent cover design is a little age soiled, but it is very much in the Beggarstaff tradition. A sumptuous and very attractive production, oversized, and very heavy. This will need more postage depending on destination. This is now an extremely hard to find collection. It is a much sought after title. 0.0 0.0 0.0. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 002872
