Imperial Theatre – The Perfect Lover Album – C late 1800s
An original large souvenir album for The Perfect Lover at the Imperial Theatre, dating from the late 1800s. It is filled with words and black and white pictures throughout, giving a vivid flavour of the production.
Illustrated souvenir albums were sold as keepsakes and were far more lavish than the everyday playbill, so they are a treat for collectors of Victorian theatre memorabilia and old theatre programmes.
