1925 Beard Moustache Pointing Soft Toy Jolly
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant world of 1920s theatre. The image captures the talented actor John Danvers in his role as Old Bill in the renowned New Oxford Theatre production of "Carry on Sergeant" on a memorable evening of November 14th, 1925. At the age of 41, John Danvers effortlessly embodies the character with his distinguished appearance. His beard and moustache add an air of wisdom and experience to his portrayal, while his jolly expression reveals a man who truly loves what he does. Pointing towards something unseen, perhaps engaging with fellow actors or audience members during a lively scene at the pub set. The backdrop showcases an authentic bar setting where laughter and entertainment abound. A soft toy stuffed cat sits perched on one side, adding a touch of whimsy to this theatrical moment frozen in time. This photograph beautifully encapsulates the joyous atmosphere that permeated through every performance at New Oxford Theatre during its heyday. It serves as a testament to both John Danvers' exceptional talent and dedication to his craft. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history captured by Staff from Memory Lane Prints, we can't help but feel grateful for these glimpses into our past that remind us how art has always had the power to transport us into worlds beyond our own reality.
