EDITORS COMMENTS
This music cover from the early 1910s showcases the dapper and charismatic Basil Hallam as he sings the popular hit "Gilbert the Filbert," written by Arthur Wimperis with music by Herman Finck. The cover, published by Alfred Butts for The Passing Show at the Palace Theatre in London during 1914, depicts Hallam with a confident and charming expression as he gazes off-camera, his arms folded across his chest. The elegant design of the cover, with its intricate border and ornate typography, perfectly encapsulates the sophistication and allure of the era. The lyrics of "Gilbert the Filbert" tell the story of a man who, despite his humble beginnings, rises to fame and fortune through his determination and charisma. This vintage music cover is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of early 20th-century entertainment and the enduring appeal of live music and performance.
