EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the magical world of 'The Harbour Lights' as depicted in this beautiful promotional Christmas card from 1885. The interior of the Adelphi Theatre comes alive with the holiday spirit as twinkling harbour lights reflect off the glossy surface of the card, casting a warm and inviting glow. The mistletoe and ivy border adds to the festive atmosphere, while the ornate border frames the image in elegant sophistication. This card, produced for the first run of George R. Sims' play at the Adelphi Theatre on December 23, 1885, invites us to imagine the excitement and wonder of attending a theatrical performance during the holiday season over a century ago. The Harbour Lights was a popular Victorian melodrama, known for its dramatic plot and memorable characters. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to experience the enchantment of the past and the magic of the holiday season. This promotional card is a beautiful reminder of the enduring appeal of live theatre and the joy it brings to audiences, year after year.
