EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Musical Nod to Egyptomania in the Roaring Twenties This music sheet cover, dated 1923, showcases the song title, "In the Day of Tut-ankh-amen," with the enchanting faces of performers Norah Blaney and Gwen Farrar gazing intently at the audience. Composed by Reg Low and J.P. Long, this musical number was a standout feature in the popular Andre Charlot revue, "Rats!" which played at the prestigious Vaudeville Theatre. The discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamen in 1922 had sent shockwaves through the world, sparking a wave of Egyptomania that permeated various aspects of society, including entertainment. This topical skit, sung by the alluring duo of Norah Blaney and Gwen Farrar, capitalized on the public's fascination with the ancient Egyptian civilization and its enigmatic ruler. The 1920s, a decade marked by artistic innovation and cultural shifts, saw an explosion of musical numbers that reflected the zeitgeist. This image encapsulates the era's spirit, with its intricate Art Deco design elements and the captivating presence of Blaney and Farrar, who, with their enchanting performance, transported audiences to the mystical land of Egypt. The song's lyrics, not shown on this cover, likely touched upon the recent archaeological discoveries and the allure of the ancient civilization. The image of the two women, dressed in Egyptian-inspired attire, further emphasizes the theme of the revue. This music sheet serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the cultural milieu of the Roaring Twenties and the enduring allure of ancient Egypt.
