HANDBILL FOR COMMAND PERFORMANCE OF BULWER-LYTTON'S "MONEY" GIVEN FOR QUEEN VICTORIA

1854. Handbill for a command performance of a comedy by Edward Bulwer-Lytton called MONEY, given for Queen Victoria at Windsor Castle on January 12, 1854. Printed on a single folded sheet of lace-trimmed paper with an embossed imperial insignia at the top. The final name on the cast list, the director's wife, has been crossed off and a different name written in (perhaps an understudy). Mild yellowing down the right side on the front; horizontal crase and one corner crease on the back. Very mild wear on the right edge. Otherwise in well-preserved shape for its age. Item #190978

This performance of MONEY was directed by Shakespearian actor Charles Kean (1811-1868).
