New York Theater Broadside for Dion Boucicault’s
Forbidden Fruit!
at Wallack’s Theater
New York: Metropolitan Print, [1877].
Approximately 7.5” x 20.5”. Clean with some minor wear at the lower left corner and the expected storage folds. The letters at the top of the broadside are not blurred, the fuzziness is
from
a smear on the camera lens.
At the time of this broadside, Wallack’s Theatre was situated at its second location, 844
Broadway
and 13th Street. It was managed by actors James W. Wallack and his son, Lester Wallack, and for most of the last half of the 19th century, it was considered to be the best theater company in the country.
Forbidden Fruit!
by Don Boucicault, an Irish actor and playwright famed for his
melodramas,
was a comedic farce that begins with a man’s chance rescue of The Great Zulu, the Princess of Trapeze, from a runaway horse. Although it was only moderately well received when it first opened in 1876, it became a popular stage staple for many years in revivals and performances in London and throughout the United States.

Payment
PayPal is preferred for both US and international payments.
Other methods of payment may be possible.
Shipping
Domestic Shipping.
Most orders are shipped to locations in the US at no additional cost. If not, shipping costs are set at a flat rate on an item-by-item basis.
Media mail shipping--when available and appropriate--is inexpensive but may take between two and four weeks, especially if delivery is to the west coast. If a quick delivery is important to you, please request USPS Priority Mail or some other expedited delivery service before paying.
International Shipping. International shipping is usually done through the eBay Global Shipping Program.  I know that this can be expensive, but I've switched to this method because I've had too many claims of non-receipt by international buyers.  If you contact me in advance of purchase it may be possible for me to ship directly to you.
If I ship directly, I will only ship overseas using a trackable method; this can be expensive, and it is non-negotiable.  Also, I will only enter true information on customs forms; if you  have a problem paying your nation's customs fees, that is beteen you and your government, I have nothing to do with it.
If you pay by PayPal, I will only ship to the shipping address specified by PayPal.
All shipments are covered by my business insurance at my expense, however if you would like to purchase additional USPS insurance at your expense, let me know, and I'll adjust your invoice accordingly.
