This print shows the front of the St. James Theatre as it looked around 1900. It’s one of many views made for a small book that tracked the theatre’s first sixty-five years. The souvenir booklet came out in 1900, the same year this illustration was printed. It’s a slice of London theatre history you can hold in your hands. Check the Victoria and Albert Museum to see the full collection.
