The Baldwin Theatre, San Franciso, 25 May 1884. Souvenir night. This card was given to each member of the night's audience

| 25 May 1884 |
Abe Erlanger had his company's auditorium photographed by the new flash photography ...
Abe was (in the days bwefore he became truly tentacled) the representant of George S Knight who played, this night, in the broad Germanspeak comedy Otto, with his wife, the former Sophie Worrell.
The owner of our card ('Miss L ?N C') seems to have been more interested in Mr & Mrs Young, managing editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, in their box ..

| Played alternately with Otto |
So .. a rare bit of ephemera .. 'this night only' ... nice.
