This poster from 1913 advertises a variety show at the Pavilion in Ayr. It’s by Observer Printing Works, meant to grab attention with bold text and images. The show stars Maude Edwards, a ventriloquist, in a mix of acts. She’d make her dummy talk while she stayed silent. That trick must have amazed crowds. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more posters like this.
