EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon from the 1880s depicts the renowned actor-manager Squire Bancroft, once the proud proprietor of the Prince of Wales Theatre on Tottenham Court Road in London, now visiting the Salvation Army headquarters. The little theatre that once brought him great fortune and fame has been repurposed as a Salvation Army hostel since his retirement from management in 1885. Here, Bancroft is seen in conversation with General William Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army. The caption playfully ponders if the General will be able to match the financial success Bancroft once enjoyed in the entertainment industry. The cartoon, titled "To think the little house should come to this! I wonder if he will make as much money here as I did!" is a poignant reminder of the passage of time and the transformative power of circumstances. The image, published in an 1885 edition of "Entracte," a popular theatrical magazine, captures the spirit of the late Victorian era and the intersection of entertainment and religion in the heart of London.
