Dwarfs as comedians, athletes, wrestlers"; "E. Ritter - Impresario") promoting a troupe of little people entertainers, and featuring artwork of them performing various acts and stunts. This poster was printed by Adolph Friedlander who is a famous German lithographer of posters and a publisher from the 1870s to the 1900s. Working out of Hamburg, Germany, he predominantly printed posters for artists, magicians, and circus and vaudeville performers. He passed away in 1904 at the age of 53. We could find no information about this on the Internet, but because of the printer, we can almost certainly know that the poster was printed prior to 1905. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
