This 20th-century poster advertises Rosaire’s Big Circus in Much Wenlock on Monday, 19 September. Printed by Reliance Printing Works, it lists star acts like Valento on the high wire and the Paulino Girls on the trapeze. The bold line “Everything New. Everything Up-to-date” promises a fresh, modern show. The sheet music image hints it doubled as a flyer and tune sheet. The printed date and acts were added later in the blank space.
