The flyer is smaller (5 1/2 x 7 inches) and is a 4-page bifolio with a cover photograph of Adeline Genee in her dance outfit. A nice little package.Adeline Genee was born in Denmark in 1878 (nee Anina Kirstina Margaret Petra Jensen) and by 1895 the principal dancer of the Royal Danish Ballet in Copenhagen. Subsequently, in 1896, she danced with the Berlin Royal Opera Ballet and the Munich Opera Ballet. By 1897 Adeline had moved to England where she performed at the Empire Theatre for years solidifying her reputation. In November 1907, Genee sailed to the USA to perform in The Soul Kiss at the New York Theatre. The producer, Florenz Ziegfeld, described her on the posters as "The World's Greatest Dancer."On 3 December 1912 she made her debut at New York's Metropolitan Opera, with a program of divertissements which included La Camargo, which had premiered earlier in 1912 at the London Coliseum. In it she recreated the dancing of the great ballerina Marie Camargo. On 17 December 1912, the Met saw the premiere of La danse, subtitled "An Authentic Record by Adeline Genée of Dancing and Dancers between the Years 1710 and 1845". Its seven tableaux portrayed past ballerinas from Françoise Prévost to Marie Taglioni. La Camargo and La danse were original ballets by Genée, created in collaboration with the composer Dora Bright and the designer C. Wilhelm. She took these on her subsequent tours of America, Australia and NewZealand. These pamphlets concern that period of her history. All seven of the dances are listed in the larger publication.

1 lettre autographe signée 2 pp. In-8 8 juin 1902 Bon "I see you are an admirer of the beautiful art of dancing, it gives me a great satisfaction to know that some of my auditorium are a little interested in the work. The artist does, not only admiring the dresses, which seems very much to be the custum here ; I receive many letters and autographs books to write in and I do it with great pleasure because I love dancing and believe in sympathising with those who like it also. Yours sincerely. Adeline Genée from Copenhagen". Danseusebritanniqued'origine danoise.
