Abstract
ABSTRACTThe authors undertook research in the British Newspaper Library into music hall performers in the early twentieth century magazine the Red Letter. The magazine uniquely gives details of various acts and the audiences' reaction to them. However, due to lax record-keeping on their part, it was necessary to return to the library, which accidentally led to the uncovering of much more information previously unknown, particularly in relation to the rise to prominence of Charlie Chaplin. The authors are now looking at producer Mike Craig's comedy archive, maintained at the University of Salford.
