Description: Rare, antique theatre poster / playbill for the Ballet Divertissement by Miss Marion Inch and the Ladies of the Corps de Ballet from around 1850. The upper half of this Playbill is missing - reflected in the price - please note this. Definitely from a London Theatre probably the Theatre Royal Haymarket. The playbill itself is on tissue thin white paper with black titling. Measurements (of the lower section which I have) are 10.5" tall by 9.5" wide (27 cm x 26cm). A short tear to upper left margin, allong the letter B of Ballet (with no losses), otherwise the section I have is in reasonable / good condition - see photos. An early Victorian Playbill featuring any form of ballet is a rare find. Extremely scarce and a remarkable survivor - over 170 years old. These flimsy, antique playbills are nearly impossible to find today outside major collections and will only appreciate in value. A rare survivor, since on such flimsy paper that few will have survived. Only asking £5 (due to condition) + Postage £3.70 UK (proof of postage, no tracking), £10 Europe, £18.60 USA/world - with proof of postage. I will combine postage if you buy more than one item.
