Scene from "Never Too Late To Mend," at the Princess's Theatre, 1865. Creator: Unknown
Scene from "Never Too Late To Mend," at the Princess's Theatre, 1865. London stage production. 'That interesting drama of modern social life founded upon Mr. Charles Reade's popular story of "Never Too Late to Mend" is likely to engage for a long time the sympathies of the crowded audiences nightly gathered in the Princess's Theatre...Our Illustration gives a view of one of the most effective pieces of the appropriate scenery designed and painted by Mr. Lloyd for this play; it is the night scene in the ravine, somewhere in the Australian goldfields, where, by the light of a torch, the party of diggers are engaged in sifting the sands of the river in search of some grains of the precious ore'. From "Illustrated London News", 1865
