Description
Artist: ANONYMOUS
Size: 31 1/2 x 47 3/4 in./80 x 121 cm
Condition: Cond B/Slight tears at folds and seam.
Printer: Affiches Sénécault, Roubaix
Reference:
Miss Rose & Jack. 1894.
Miss Rose fiddles-away while her stagemate Jack joins in on the concertina in this poster by “B.F.” for their award-winning “Negro Burlesque.” Politically-incorrect caricatured features aside, the promotion portrays their act as a rather wholesome, family-friendly evening of song and dance. Sadly, no record of Rose and Jack’s time in the spotlight exists to verify this supposition beyond the artwork seen here.
