Players Of The Day: A Series of Portraits In Colour Of Theatrical Celebrities of the Present Time
London: George Newnes, n.d. [1902]. First Edition. Publisher’s cloth; minor rubbing; very good; the interior is in near fine condition. The volume consists of 48 color portraits, each mounted on a leaf with a preceding biographical page. Among the best of these portraits is one of Gillette as Holmes. Unlike the other portraits, Bernhardt, Irving, Terry, Tree, etc., which are color renditions of photographs, this is an original illustration. Of additional Sherlockian interest is the portrait of Seymour Hicks, who appeared in “Under The Clock”.
