EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the larger-than-life presence of Little Tich, born Harry Relph (1867-1928), a legendary music hall entertainer known for his unique comedic style and iconic 28-inch high boots, affectionately called 'slapshoes.' In this portrait, taken in 1929, Tich proudly poses as the 'Captain of the Forty,' a nod to his popular act where he led a fictional regiment of forty men, all represented by his oversized boots. The image showcases Tich's playful expression and his impeccable sense of showmanship, which made him a beloved figure in the entertainment world. A British native, Tich began his career as a child performer in the late 1800s and quickly rose to fame for his innovative and humorous routines. His Big Boot dance, which involved him wearing the massive boots and performing intricate footwork, became his signature move and left audiences in awe. This photograph is a testament to Tich's enduring legacy as an influential figure in music hall history and a true master of his craft. The caricatured nature of this portrait adds to the whimsical charm of the image, further emphasizing Tich's unique personality and the joy he brought to countless spectators. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of music hall entertainment during the early 20th century and the extraordinary talent that graced its stages.
