research and other wanderings - see my website! There are comics and a store and everything: Hark! A Vagrant
I found this neat hand painted sign in an antique store! The Player’s Club of Toronto was, as far as I can tell, a 1920’s theatre group. It’s really great to see this kind of hand done design up close.

Follower lachrimaestro sends me this awesome info!


The Players Club was an offshoot of the Hart House theatre group at U of T.  In the ‘20’s the artistic side of productions, - sets, costumes, bills etc., were handled by a succession of Group of Seven members - Harris, MacDonald, and Lismer.   Commercial draftsmen that they were… it’s not inconceivable!
