EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to the late 1870s, a time when humorists reigned supreme on the American lecture circuit. The image captures three iconic figures who brought laughter and wit to audiences across the nation: Samuel L. Clemens, David R. Locke (known as Petroleum V. Nasby), and Henry Wheeler Shaw (famously known as Josh Billings). Samuel L. Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, stands tall in the center of the portrait with an air of confidence emanating from him. His signature moustache adds to his distinguished appearance, symbolizing his status as one of America's greatest writers. Flanking Twain on either side are two equally renowned humorists - David R. Locke and Henry Wheeler Shaw. Locke's pseudonym "Petroleum V. Nasby" was derived from his satirical character that commented on Southern politics during Reconstruction era. Shaw, often referred to as Josh Billings, brings a touch of charm with his mischievous smile and disheveled hair. Together these men formed a triumvirate of comedic brilliance that delighted audiences nationwide through their lectures organized by James Redpath's Boston Lyceum Bureau. This print serves as a testament to their enduring legacy in American literature and entertainment history - reminding us all that even in times of great change and upheaval, laughter can be found amidst it all.
