FREE SHIPPING – AS USUAL!
Original ca. 1880 playbill for Anthony & Ellis’ production of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, the play.
Printed on the verso of a Victorian Trade Card for Hoyt’s German Cologne, made by E W Hoyt & Company, Lowell Massachusetts. I wonder if this production was done in Lowell Massachusetts with the Hoyt Company as sponsor since the lithographed front of the trade card says “Programme” at the top of the card.
Card measures 3
1/8
inches wide by 5
3/4
inches deep.
Cast included Miss Minnie Foster as TOPSY, Perkins D. Fisher as Uncle Tom, Frank Allen as the evil Simon Legree and Little May Hillman as Eva, “The Flower of the South.” Cast also included the “great trick donkey, Pruno.” Complete cast is printed on the card.
Anthony & Ellis’ traveling production of Uncle Tom’s Cabin toured the country for years ca. 1875-1885 and was very popular. There are several online references & sources to their production of this play.
As of 15 June 2020 I could find NO OTHER LISTING for this on ebay.
(Starting 18 March 2020 – though I’m social distancing myself and have absolutely no symptoms – I will rub [until dry] a fresh dollop of hand sanitizer into my hands immediately before picking your items from my shelves and packing them – and again when I mail them).
Corners bumped & other very modest wear; faint penciled name “Fannie” on the lithographed side of the card; else VERY GOOD . . . . . . . .
Remember that the
Abraham Lincoln Penny
is not attached to the item. It is put on the scanner bed merely to protect the uniqueness or near uniqueness of an image so that the high bidder gets an item that has not been copied via someone’s computer. The penny DOES NOT hide any faults or any damage!
