EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster, dating back to 1907, advertises the light opera production of "Lady Tatters," a title that remains shrouded in mystery. The image presents a charming Cockney woman, dressed in tattered clothes and holding a birdcage, with a mischievous expression on her face. The setting is reminiscent of the London streets, complete with a red double-decker bus and a street lamp in the background. The woman's appearance and demeanor seem to suggest a connection to the Pygmalion story or perhaps even a Cockney version of "My Fair Lady." The poster, designed by the renowned theatrical artist, Hassall, exudes an air of romance and popular entertainment. The use of warm colors and intricate details adds to the allure of the production. The poster's design is typical of the time, with a focus on exaggerated stereotypes that were popular in the theatre and pantomime. The style of the poster is reminiscent of operettas and operas, which were popular forms of entertainment during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Despite the lack of information about the production itself, this poster provides a glimpse into the theatrical world of Britain over a century ago. It offers a window into the past, showcasing the romantic and whimsical nature of light operas and the theatrical artistry of the time. The image of the Cockney woman in tatters continues to captivate audiences today, offering a glimpse into the rich history of popular entertainment.
