EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Raines & Porter Ltd. advertisement from 1919, taken from The British Printer Vol. XXXII. The image showcases the vibrant world of entertainment in early 20th century Britain. In the foreground, we see a group of individuals dressed in eye-catching costumes, representing various professions within the industry. A lady in a striking red dress takes center stage as she gracefully bows to her audience, exuding elegance and charm. Beside her stands a gentleman donning an elaborate clown outfit, adding an element of humor to the scene. These performers symbolize the diverse talents that brought joy and excitement to audiences during this era. The backdrop features intricately designed curtains that add depth and richness to the composition while highlighting the grandeur of theatrical performances at that time. This lithograph print reflects both the artistry involved in advertising as well as Raines & Porter Ltd. 's commitment to quality printing. The photograph not only serves as a visual reminder of British entertainment history but also pays homage to those who contributed their skills behind-the-scenes - such as ink makers and manufacturers like Raithby Lawrence Co. , whose craftsmanship played an essential role in bringing these advertisements to life. As we gaze upon this snapshot from nearly a century ago, it transports us back into an enchanting world where creativity flourished on stage and behind closed doors alike - forever preserved by The Print Collector's lens for future generations to appreciate.
