About This Item
2 Cromwell Road West, 27 January 1875. 2 pp. 7 x 4 inches, some light staining where formerly mounted. I played the part of a soldier in the comic scenes of the pantomime. I had nothing to say. It was a mere utility part, if indeed it could be called a part at all. I was advised by Mr. C.Kean to begin at the bottom of the ladder & I did.
