Grand Opera House (London, Ont.) · 1893 · [London, Ont.? : s.n.] · 2 pictures

A printed programme from the Grand Opera House in London, Ontario, for a Wednesday performance on 8 March 1893, billing entertainers Mr. Marshall and P. Wilder under the Fred Pelham Agency and likely aimed at local theatre audiences. The two pictures are small advertisements: one shows a large multi-storey hotel building under a dramatic cloud sky, and the other sets a heavy script 'Burns' among shop notices for collars, cigars and jewellery. A designer might take the bold black-on-white hotel engraving and the expressive script lettering as period advertising models.
