EDITORS COMMENTS
This advertisement hails from September 1919, showcasing the musical offerings of West's, esteemed music publishers, located at 12 Moor Street, Charing Cross Road, London. The image features a tantalizing glimpse into the world of Hawaiian music, which was all the rage during this era. The advertisement promotes the publication of sheet music from the hit play, "The Bird of Paradise," which was then showing at the prestigious Palace Theatre. The advertisement includes a few bars of a waltz dedicated to the enchanting and popular stage personality, Miss Dorothy Dix, alias Luana, who graced the Palace Theatre stage in "The Bird of Paradise." The Hawaiian-themed production, with its exotic music and alluring dance numbers, captivated audiences and fueled the public's fascination with the islands and their unique culture. West's, as a leading music publisher, recognized the demand for this popular genre and swiftly released the sheet music for the waltz, allowing music enthusiasts to bring the enchanting sounds of the islands into their own homes. The advertisement's elegant design, with its intricate musical notation and evocative imagery, perfectly encapsulates the allure and excitement of this musical phenomenon that swept through London during the 1910s.
