An Original Vintage Linenbacked Stage Play Poster (measures 28" x 42 1/2" [71 x 108 cm]) (Learn More) Uncle Tom's Cabin, the circa 1900s stage play adaptation of Harriet Beecher Stowe's classic novel, which helped bring about the end of slavery and the Civil War, thanks to its depiction of the cruel treatment of African American slaves in the South. Note that we have seen posters from this stage play production that were dated from 1890 to 1930s. Posters from any stage production of Uncle Tom's Cabin are incredibly difficult to accurately date (unless they are dated, of course, but virtually none are). This is because there were endless stage productions of this play from 1890 on, all over the U.S. We have no doubt that companies would print posters that local touring companies would order, which would explain why they rarely had any credits of any kind, no doubt so they could be used by any touring company. So please keep in mind the possible wide dating range when bidding. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had minor wear on the foldlines and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! At some point after it was backed, it acquired some faint staining scattered in the top edge, both in the excess linen and in the border of the poster, and it also acquired some creases in the bottom border, mostly in the excess linen, but slightly extending into the border of the poster (see our image).
