This 1891 poster hawks a play called *A Royal Divorce* at London’s New Olympic Theatre. The Dangerfield Printing Co. Ltd. handled the ink and paper, mixing Impressionist flair with Realist lines. The show’s writers? W.G. Wills and G.G. Collingham. One night at the theater equals one ticket sold—simple math for a busy London crowd. Next time you’re in London, swing by the Victoria and Albert Museum.
