Date Sold 2/17/2022Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 2 Original Vintage Folded Stage Play Posters (measure 28" x 42" [71 x 107 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. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare group of two posters. We have never auctioned either one in all our years of auctioning! Note also that these posters were folded at one time but have been laying flat for a long time and they will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The poster with the man beating the slave has minor fold wear, with several creases, tiny tears and tiny areas of paper loss along portions of the blank borders. The other poster was removed from a surface and has glue staining throughout the back and it is somewhat discolored on the front. It has many creases, defects, areas of paper loss and significant tears of varying lengths along parts of some edges and several of those are repaired with tape from the back.
