An Original Vintage Folded Stage Play Poster (measures 25" x 32 3/4" [64 x 83 cm]) (Learn More) Helen Barry (born Elizabeth Short) was an English stage play actress from the 1870s to the 1890s. She was first on the stage from 1872, after she was divorced. She remarried, but continued acting. When her second husband died in 1882, she remarried an American and moved there, but her third husband died quickly, and she started acting in both New York and London. Some of her stage plays include: Heart's Delight, Around the World in 80 Days, and The Lady of Lyons. Barry passed away in 1904 at the age of 64. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster is undated, but it has "1884" handwritten on the back, and that is very consistent with her career. However, using a perpetual calendar, we see that the dates at the bottom of the front correlate to the year 1883, so we imagine that is when it is from, and that makes sense, because as stated above, she first moved to New York in 1882 or 1883. If that is correct, she was 43 when the poster was created, and we suspect they used a younger image of her for the poster! Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The poster was folded once in each direction. There is paper tape on the back of all the borders and both folds. Please look at our super-sized image to get a good sense of the exact condition of this item. Learn More about condition grades
