[Music – Con Artists – Theatre – Chicago] Lander, Max; "Princess Dalla Pattra"
Tears Make My Rainbows
Chicago Illinois: Egyptian Press 1932. Folio 5 pp. Wraps torn at seam slightly musty odor good condition. An unrecorded composition by a woman who travelled through the midwest claiming to be a descendant of Cleopatra using the name Princess Dalla Pattra. The details of the princess are murky as she disappears from newspaper records after 1930 when she admitted in court to using a manager to stage a publicity stunt in St. Louis.1 In her hearing she also admitted that she had been arrested for embezzlement in San Francisco in 1920. Two years later rather inexplicably this songsheet was published in collaboration with a Max Lander who according to patent records was English. <br /> <br /> The introduction to the song reads: “Hear the desert winds shriek and the tom-toms in the distance thrilling with the weird undertone of the desert night then the calm as the Royal Egyptian Maiden sings her love song to her desert prince.†We find no record of the composition in OCLC or anywhere else or of the princess in newspapers after her 1930 court appearance with the only findable record of her continued impersonation a patent registered in 19312 and this song sheet. <br /> <br /> 1 “St. Louis Wonders if it Got a Fooling†Kirksville Daily Express and Kirksville Daily News April 6 1930.<br /> 2 “Only to be with you just for a day†Catalog of Copyright Entries Part 3: Musical Compositions Library of Congress Copyright Office 1932 22760 accessed at ​​https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_ZS5jAAAAIAAJ/page/1165/.

[Music – Lithography – Nineteenth-Century Theatre – Male Impersonation]
Tassels on the Boots. From Elise Holt’s Celebrated Songs
Boston: Koppitz Prüfer & Co. 30 West St. cor. Mason Street; New York: Wm. A. Pond & Co 1869. Folio lithographed cover with hand-coloring. Stitching removed at margins suggesting this was bound in a larger volume else about fine. Signed by Holt next to the illustration. Near Fine. A finely executed example of post–Civil War American sheet music lithography depicting stage performer Elise Holt in masculine costume top hat and cigar in a style typical of Boston commercial lithographic production of the period. The imagery situates Holt within the established nineteenth-century tradition of theatrical male impersonation or “breeches roles†in which female performers adopted masculine dress and gesture as part of fashionable stage personas. Archival records identify Holt as a ballet dancer who later appeared as a burlesque performer and died while touring in 1873 after contracting typhoid fever.1 She led the Elyse Holt Burlesque Troupe. Photographic evidence held by Digital Commonwealth likewise shows Holt posed in masculine stage attire indicating that male impersonation formed part of her professional repertoire. The song sometimes seen as “Tassels on her Boots†extolls the virtues of women’s clothing. Overall a nice lithographic example of women performing in men’s roles showing a fairly obscure but widely touring performer whose career was tragically cut short by illness. We find two copies of this sheet at BYU and Baylor.<br /> <br /> 1 “Elise Holt ballet dancer turned burlesque star†Kentucky Historical Society Nicola Marschall Collection https://www.kyhistory.com/digital/collection/PH/id/2477/. unknown

[NEW THEATRE ROYAL]
New Theatre Royal English Opera Strand. This present Friday August 22 1817 Will be performed Eighth Time an entirely New Pastoral Serio-Comick Opera called The Persian Hunters Or the Rose of Gurgistan.
London: s.n. 1817. Single leaf broadside. Some creasing and browning. Inked '65' to head of recto. An early playbill - marking the eighth performance - for Charles Edward Horn's 1786-1849 'Serio-Comick Opera' The Persian Hunters which was first staged just nine days earlier on August 13 1817. Based upon a Persian tale in which a Sultan conceives of the notion of romantic love seeking a partner who was ignorant of his royal station and attracted to him for what the La Belle Assemblee described in a contemporary review as 'his mere person'. The periodical notes that the 'scenery is peculiarly good pleasing and characteristic; the music is appropriate accordance with the scenery characters and story'. The building which later housed the English Opera House had been used to stage exhibitions and performances of various types including at different points those of the Royal Academy and Madam Tussauds since 1765 but was not licensed as a patent theatre until 1809. Rebuilt in 1816 by Arnold it re-opened and operated under this name until 1830 when it burned down and later replaced by the Lyceum Theatre. The summer of 1817 marked a time of great innovation for the London stage; both the Theatre Royal Drury Lane and the English Opera House introduced gas lighting throughout replacing candles - changing the atmosphere of the production and theatre ownership a somewhat safer proposition. The proud inclusion of 'The GAS LIGHTS are now introduced over the whole Stage' as the headline of this playbill demonstrates the marketing emphasis that was put on the endeavour. .
