One of its artists was Frank Vizetelly (1830-1883); he covered the Civil War for British readers. Early on, he illustrated the war from the Union side but was later allowed to draw from the Confederate side. Artists like Vizetelly sometimes did more than draw, though. He acted as a messenger for Confederate General James Longstreet at the battle of Chickamauga. Vizetelly was also a staff aide for the Confederates at the battle of Fredericksburg and was present at Charleston, South Carolina, when it was besieged. Because of such personal involvement by artists, many engravings were not made by detached observers, but by active participants in history unfolding.","Frank Leslie (1821-1880) was another artist who began his career as an engraver in 1842 and eventually published his own newspaper, which he titled, Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper. The newspaper also covered the Civil War. Leslie used a large number of illustrations in his newspaper to increase circulation. Images from Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper are well represented in Northern Virginia Images Collection, including several images from the German language edition of the newspaper.","Another popular periodical of the time was Harper's Weekly. It first appeared in 1857 and became one of the most important and influential periodicals in nineteenth century America, notably during the Civil War. Two prominent artists for Harper's Weekly during this period were Alfred Waud (1828-1891) and Thomas Nast (1840-1902). Engravings by both are included in Northern Virginia Images Collection. Waud was primarily assigned to the eastern front and covered the war from the Battle of First Manassas to the Confederacy's surrender at Appomattox Court House. Thomas Nast (who later became famous for creating the roly- poly figure in red we now know as Santa Claus) worked largely in New York for most of the war. One of the major exceptions to this was when he spent time in the Union camp during the Battle of Gettysburg. Nast's sympathies were for the Union side, which, naturally, bothered Southerners, who often sent threatening letters to Nast at the Harper's Weekly office. By and large, The Illustrated London News, Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, and Harper's Weekly illustrated the Civil War from the Northern point-of-view.","Many of today's Northern Virginia residents only know the area as a population outgrowth of Washington, D.C. Despite this cosmopolitan reputation, it was largely farm country at the time of the Civil War through World War II. Few realize that the area was the frequent battleground for large contending forces. Yet, many of the areas that are depicted in the images still exist today but under much different circumstances. Some of the areas included in these images have undergone radical cultural changes as well. An Islamic Mosque now occupies Munson Hill, which Confederate forces occupied under General J.E.B.

Fischer and J. Jarno. The plot centers around two retired husbands, Colonel Wilberforce Walker and Commodore Van Gütt, both of whom enjoy frequent leisure visits to London. While the Commodore's wife provides him with very little money for these excursions, the Colonel reveals that he is always able to receive ample funds because of an elaborate lie he told his wife 26 years ago: that he needs to support a child he fathered out of wedlock prior to their marriage. However, this comfortable arrangement soon becomes much more complicated when the Colonel's wife demands to meet the \"baby\" she has been supporting, which just so happens to overlap with a surprise visit by a 26-year old suitor who wishes to marry the couple's actual daughter. The play had its initial premiere on Easter Monday, April 6, 1896 at the Gaiety Theatre in Hastings, before opening at London's Royalty Theatre later that month. Sometime circa 1899 the play was produced in the United States by David de Wolf (listed on the posters as the play's \"chaperone\") who may have been the leader of a traveling theatre company.","Arthur Bourchier was born in Speen, Berkshire England on June 22, 1863 and educated at Eton and Oxford University. While at Oxford he began acting in an amateur theatre group and soon after founded the Oxford University Dramatic Society (OUDS). Bourchier continued acting professionally across both England and the United States and in 1893 performed opposite actress Violet Vanbrugh who he would go on to marry the following year. In 1895, Bourchier became lessee of London's newly reconstructed Royalty Theatre where he staged numerous productions, including several adaptations of his own including The New Baby and the highly successful The Chili Widow which reopened the theatre and ran for over 300 performances. Bourchier passed away on September 14, 1927 at the age of 64 after falling ill while on tour in South Africa.","The U.S. Lithographic Company was founded in January 1867 as Russell, Morgan \u0026 Company [Co.] by printers A.O. Russell and Robert J. Morgan and financial backers James M. Armstrong and John F. Robinson, Jr. following purchase of The Cincinnati Enquirer's printing section. The company initially printed posters for theatrical and circus productions, as well as placards and labels. In 1880, Russell proposed expanding their manufacturing to include playing cards, with the company's first deck completed the following year on June 28, and by 1894 the playing card portion of the business had grown large enough that it separated into The United States Playing Card Company, which is still in operation today. In 1891, Russell, Morgan \u0026 Company changed their name to The United States Printing Company [Co.], but continued to include \"Russell Morgan Print\" in large letters along with the formal company name on all printed items. In 1901, the company changed their name to United States [U.S.] Lithograph Company [Co.] and sometime between 1912-1914 changed their name once again to United States Printing \u0026 Lithograph Company [Co.] and began expanding their entertainment industry printing to include film posters.","Processing and finding aid completed by Meghan Glasbrenner from November - December 2023.","The Special Collections Research Center holds other lithographs and theatrical posters including the Porgy and Bess poster collection, and the East German poster collection performing arts series.","The Library of Congress holds the Theatrical poster collection and other posters and printed items produced by the U.S. Printing/Lithograph Company.","A collection of 10 individual lithographic theatrical posters advertising David de Wolf's American production of Arthur Bourchier's farcical comedy The New Baby.

In 1901, the company changed their name to United States [U.S.] Lithograph Company [Co.] and sometime between 1912-1914 changed their name once again to United States Printing \u0026 Lithograph Company [Co.] and began expanding their entertainment industry printing to include film posters."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe New Baby theatrical posters, C0416, Special Collections Research Center, George Mason University Libraries\u003c/p\u003e  "],"prefercite_tesim":["The New Baby theatrical posters, C0416, Special Collections Research Center, George Mason University Libraries"],"processinfo_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eProcessing and finding aid completed by Meghan Glasbrenner from November - December 2023.\u003c/p\u003e  "],"processinfo_heading_ssm":["Processing Information"],"processinfo_tesim":["Processing and finding aid completed by Meghan Glasbrenner from November - December 2023."],"relatedmaterial_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe Special Collections Research Center holds other lithographs and theatrical posters including the \u003ca href=\"https://aspace.gmu.edu/resources/c0145\"\u003ePorgy and Bess poster collection\u003c/a\u003e, and the \u003ca href=\"https://aspace.gmu.edu/resources/c0209\"\u003eEast German poster collection performing arts series\u003c/a\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThe Library of Congress holds the \u003ca href=\"https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/95861315/\"\u003eTheatrical poster collection\u003c/a\u003e and other posters and printed items produced by the U.S. Printing/Lithograph Company.\u003c/p\u003e  "],"relatedmaterial_heading_ssm":["Related Materials"],"relatedmaterial_tesim":["The Special Collections Research Center holds other lithographs and theatrical posters including the Porgy and Bess poster collection, and the East German poster collection performing arts series.","The Library of Congress holds the Theatrical poster collection and other posters and printed items produced by the U.S. Printing/Lithograph Company."],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eA collection of 10 individual lithographic theatrical posters advertising David de Wolf's American production of Arthur Bourchier's farcical comedy \u003citalic\u003eThe New Baby\u003c/italic\u003e.
