EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, hailing from 1922, showcases the inimitable charm and versatility of the beloved British comedian, George Robey. The image graces the front cover of The Illustrated Sporting & Dramatic News, with the enticing title "Round in 50: Harold in Fifty Costumes at the London Hippodrome" proudly emblazoned across the top. Robey, a household name in British entertainment during the early 20th century, is depicted in various humorous and whimsical costumes from his hit revue, "Round in 50." The London Hippodrome, a renowned and historic venue, was the stage for this groundbreaking production that saw Robey don fifty different outfits throughout the show, demonstrating his remarkable comedic talent and agility. The Illustrated Sporting & Dramatic News was a popular weekly publication that covered sports, drama, and entertainment news. This cover image, featuring Robey in his prime, would have captured the attention of readers and theatre-goers alike, promising an evening of laughter and merriment at the London Hippodrome. Robey's comedic genius transcended generations, and his influence on British comedy is still felt today. This photograph print is a testament to his enduring legacy and the joy he brought to audiences during the Roaring Twenties. A true comedy icon, George Robey continues to inspire and entertain, long after the final curtain call.
