Collectors Guide to Theatrical Postcards

Bonynge has built an enormous collection of theatrical postcards and is well placed to compile a useful guide for those already in the field, for those who would like to start collecting, and for the many who are fascinated by the theater and its history. He offers advice on starting a collection, categorizing theatrical postcards, finding them, and estimating their relative values. Over 200 postcards are illustrated, covering ballet, variety, pantomime, opera, circus and cinema; there are performers, playwrights and composers. The book is a spectacular portrait gallery of famous faces, not to mention fashions in theatrical dress, with many rare shots. Illustrations are in color, and duotone.Bonynge, Richard is the author of 'Collectors Guide to Theatrical Postcards ' with ISBN 9780788194023 and ISBN 078819402X.
