Mr COOKE AS RICHMOND
Provenance
Donated to the Club in 2016 by Mrs Jules Barton on behalf of her Aunt, Mrs Joan Rowe, who is the daughter of Frank Pettignell, English actor (1 Jan 1891 - 17 Feb 1966).
This is a hand drawn, coloured and tinselled copy of Mr Cooke as Richmond. This is a copy of a tinsel print in the same positioning as those sold by Webb or Johnathan King. Materials used as the backboard and felt suggest that this is possibly 20th century. The Walnut veneer frame is possibly 19th century and very similar to those used for Tinsel Prints.
