My feature on The Posters
of Bertram Mills in
The Stage |
The poster has always been the primary means of publicising a circus. Billed as the
Quality Show and the show that put the '
O' in Olympia,
Bertram Mills was Britain's biggest and most famous circus in the first half of the 20th century and produced the finest artwork.
Steven B Richley has gathered more than 350 examples of their designs in a new book,
The Posters of Bertram Mills. Read my article on the book, the posters, the artists and the acts exclusively in this week's edition of
The Stage.
