Wish I could meet Admiral Beecham ;)

That's quite the art on that poster, Paul.  Where did you find it?
Congrats.

That old cliché, I found it on Ebay...   When I did a quick check of the history, Will Murray (who is the fellow in Drag, bottom right) Set up a
Troupe call Casey's Court, in around 1906. I know Chaplin was part of the group, and Tommy Trinder. There was speculation Stan Laurel was
also, but I can't find any evidence to back up Stan worked with them.
There's a bit more history behind the Troupe, like it's where the saying, "it's like Casey's Court" comes from. So it was worth getting just
as a historical piece...  My dad uses "It's like Casey's Court" quite often.... ;D
