This photo shows Marie Lloyd dressed up for a stage role. She stands with the Brothers Edgar, three men in matching costumes. W. H. Pugh took the shot in the late 1800s. Photo cards were hot in Victorian times. Actors sold them as “cartes de visite” to fans. These small prints cost little and spread fast. Check out more at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
