Description: This risque vintage real photo postcard features theatre actress, Lydia West. I believe West is British, but I am unable to confirm her nationality. In fact, I could find little information about this pretty stage performer. I was able to locate a photograph of Miss West, in costume for her performance in the musical comedy, “Florodoro” (1899). The photo appeared in the theatre magazine, “Play Pictorial”. Research also discovered a Play Program for a play in which West was part of the cast. She played one of twelve butterflies in “My Darling” (1907). The play was co-written by actor, Seymour Hicks, and was produced at the Hicks Theatre. Marie Studholme, a very well known stage actress was in the production. This postcard was published by the Palatine Pictorial Co (Manchester, England). The postcard is a "Photinotype". The card has minor cornerwear. Overall, the postcard is in very good condition (see scans).
