Dimensions 200 x 350 mm. Single leaf broadside, two edges uncut. A trifle creased and browned, early manuscript note ('turn over' / 'postponed') to head.

An apparently unrecorded playbill advertising the debut performance, at the Olympic Theatre, London, of The Bridal Promise, an adaptation by John Oxenford (1812-1877) of French composer Ferdinand Herold's (1791-1833) opera comique Zampa, ou La fiancée de marbre (1831). As the manuscript note attests, the performance was postponed, an extant contemporary broadside suggests until June 10th.
