Oh! She Didn't Seem To Like It
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating music hall song by G. French, sung by W. Templeton at The Royal and Alhambra Theatres, and J. H. Stead at Westons, during the 1850s. This promotional music sheet showcases the intriguing lyrics and an exquisite illustration by Concanen and Lee. The image on the sheet presents a rare and enchanting view of Wyld's Globe, which graced Leicester Square in London from 1851 to 1861. James Wyld M.P., a renowned purveyor of globes, maps, and stationery, opened the globe as an outlet for his wares to coincide with the opening of the Crystal Palace. The globes were not only a source of geographical knowledge but also served as a popular leisure destination for the Victorian public. The illustration on the sheet captures the essence of the era, with its intricate details and vibrant colors. The lyrics of the song tell the story of a young lady who seems to flit from one gentleman to another, leaving a trail of broken hearts in her wake. The image of the globe in the background adds an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene, as if to suggest that the lady's heart is as unpredictable as the world itself. This promotional sheet is a testament to the rich history of music hall entertainment in the 19th century. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when music, theatre, and leisure were the primary sources of enjoyment and pleasure for the masses. The combination of the captivating lyrics, the beautiful illustration, and the historical significance of Wyld's Globe makes this a truly unique and fascinating piece of art and advertising.
