EDITORS COMMENTS
This promotional music sheet image from the late 1860s showcases the iconic character of The Postman, as portrayed by the renowned English actor, singer, and songwriter, Arthur Lloyd. The image, which is believed to have been created circa 1867, was undoubtedly an essential component of the marketing and advertising efforts for Lloyd's hugely successful stage performance of the same name at music halls during the Victorian era. The Postman, with a satchel slung over his shoulder and a determined look on his face, is depicted in the act of knocking on a door. The absence of a letterbox in the scene adds an element of charm and tradition to the image, further emphasizing the importance of personal delivery in an era before widespread use of mailboxes and modern postal services. The music sheet, adorned with intricate illustrations and decorative borders, is a testament to the enjoyment and leisure that music halls provided for the masses during this period. The image, along with the accompanying song, would have been a source of great entertainment for audiences, who would have eagerly anticipated the arrival of the postman, both in real life and on stage. Arthur Lloyd's The Postman was a musical hit of the 1860s, and this image serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of Victorian-era entertainment and the enduring appeal of the postman as a symbol of connection and communication.
