{"value"=>"<p>This series consists of black and white and color theatrical sheets, known as penny plains and two-pence coloured, documenting the actors and plays of the early to mid 19th century. Some of the imprints on the toy theater sheets include the printers West, Hodgson, B. M. DeBurson, J. Fairburn, J. Redington and B. Pollock. Almost all of the images are portraits of actors in various roles, although there are a few sheets of production sets and prop pieces.</p>"}
