Theatre Royal Nottingham - Postcard, c.1900
Title
Theatre Royal Nottingham - Postcard, c.1900
Date
c.1900
Description
Unused postcard depicting the Theatre Royal frontage and street scene on Parliament Street.
What's the story?
No exact date is available for this postcard, but with the presence of tram-lines along Parliament Street it is believed to be c.1900.
This card has been colourised using photochrome, a late Victorian process, in which colour is added to black and white photographic negatives.
The result does provide a vivid picture, but not factually correct. We don’t believe the base for Samuel Morley’s statue was such a vivid green.
