Sinbad the Sailor aka Tinbad the Tailor

  • 8 older comments, and then…
  • John Spooner said:
    The adverts & reviews for this production (in Freeman's Journal) spell it "Sindbad". The part of Sindbad Tinbad was played by Mr. Willie Crackles.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Spooner Willie Crackles and Greenleaf Withers! You couldn't make this stuff up...

  • John Spooner said:
    In the Freeman's review on 27 December, the sets and the costumes come in for particular praise. In addition
    Mr J W Volt, as Mrs Sindbad, was mainly instrumental in making the fun of the piece go fast and furious, and Mr. Crackles, whose particular name will enter into the minds and memories of the youth of the city, made the part of Tinbad quite remarkable.
    Also
    The dances are good, and Miss Jessie Noire's Serpentine dance was a feature of the time.
    That last bit has made me feel all peculiar.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Spooner Have a sit down and a cuppa, John, and you'll be right as rain! The chorus dancers must have been raging about "the dances are good" - talk about damning with faint praise.

F.A. Cup Trophy

Unidentified performer as a Fairy, ca. 1870 / photographer W. Bear, Prahran Portrait Rooms, Melbourne

  • José Manuel Ríos Valiente said:
    cool picture
  • lauralemur (life is upsidedown right now) said:
    Quite the hand-tinting on this one - the detailed work is remarkable.
  • State Library of New South Wales said:
    Yes and the digitisation doesn't show the gilding on the dress, unfortunately
  • lauralemur (life is upsidedown right now) said:
    These images are always more beautiful in person - the scans never seem to live up to the originals. Apart from the details of the dress, which must have taken a long time to complete, the delicate flesh tones were expertly done as well. The photographer was quite gifted, or employed an artist who was.
  • maniacal straw said:
    This is a great (albeit slightly odd) photograph
