Title
The Sins of Society, - Postcard, 1908
Date
5 October 1908
Description
A publicity Postcard - picture of the main character on the front and dates of the Theatre Royal performances on the back
What's the story?
The play was on tour 'Direct from Drury Lane' by Cecil Raleigh and Henry Hamilton and produced by Arthur Collins.
There is no further information on the postcard but 'The Sins of Society' was a book by Bernard Vaughan about social protest at the turn of the 20th Century which excited the 'smart set'. There could be a link? Of course Charles Dickens' novels and writings had many themes on the ills of social injustice.
