EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the enigmatic and talented Mlle Jane May, a French actress and renowned mimic, in her distinctive uniform and peaked cap. Circa 1907, this image showcases Jane May's playful and engaging stage persona. The card on which the autograph is signed and dedicated reads, "To Phyllis Broughton, with many happy returns of the day and my best wishes for continued success in your artistic career." Phyllis Broughton, herself an accomplished actress, was known for her extensive collection of autographs and dedications from popular performers. She sent self-addressed postcards to various artists, requesting their signatures and personal messages. This unique exchange between performers highlights the camaraderie and connection that existed within the theatrical community during this era. The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of early 20th century entertainment. It serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of live performance and the importance of personal connections in the arts.
