171962577Erie PA: Erie Litho & Printing Co. March 17 1923. Large double atlas folio dual-sided broadside printed on newsprint sized 9.25 x 42 in. photo & woodcut engraving illustrations recto & verso toning to paper some chipping & edgewear paper repairs to closed tears still a G- copy. First edition thus of this advertising broadside for Ericksonâ€™s â€œJ.W. Johnsonâ€™s Old Reliable Virginia Minstrels Worldâ€™s best colored show. . . â€œ which touts their supposed 15 year history and appear to have either been reformed from the â€œAlabama Minstrelsâ€ show which played throughout the West and Midwest from 1905-1914 or simply taken over some of their acts. The contortionist fire king Hi Henry Hunt who appears in this broadside regularly performed with the â€œAlabama Minstrelsâ€ from 1905-1913. The silver voiced tenor A.J. McFarland and Grace Arniot Royal Entertainer depicted on the broadside also appear to have been African-American rather than black face performers. The name appears to have been drawn from the 19th-Century original â€œVirginia Minstrelsâ€ or the â€œMelodious Ethiopian Bandâ€ which featured Billy Whitlokc Dick Pelham Frank Brower and Dan Emmett performing in New Yorkâ€™s Bowery Amphitheater in 1843 and launched the minstrelsy form of entertainment. Emmett is perhaps best remembered as the author of â€œDixieâ€ which ironically would become the Confederate States unofficial anthem.
