Description

I forgot that there was a ruler between George-Pie IV and Queen Vicky-babes :-) Apparently William IV was the king between 1830 and when Victoria took the reins in 1837. I was going to call this a Georgian piece, but it's a .. uh, Williamian piece?

A single sided, single page playbill / flyer from the famous Theatre Royal, Drury Lane - usually just referred to as Drury Lane - for Saturday October 12, 1833.

Similar playbills to this have sold for hundreds of pounds in the UK - this is a rare opportunity to pick up this almost 200 year old document for a very fair price. A price YOU decide on.

It's got some age wear around the edges per the photos, but is otherwise complete and in remarkably good order for a piece of "throwaway" paper that's coming up to 2 centuries in age.

As always I'm happy to answer any questions I can about the items I list :-) Please click or tap on the photos to enlarge for detail and to judge the condition for yourself.

I don't use the Buy Now options in my auctions.

Please examine the photos accompanying the auction carefully as they form part of the item's description. Most of the items I sell are antique, vintage or second hand, and as such aren't in perfect condition. They often have minor wear and tear as you would expect from items with some age to them.

  • Just a note that the weights in the photos are NOT included in the auction, are there just to hold it down for photography as the document has been rolled up for storage for some time. Seller comment Tuesday, 24 June 2025
