The Tyrolese Minstrels at the Egyptian Hall in 1827, and the St. James’s Theatre in 1851

The more detailed of the two prints is linked with their performances in 1851. It is said to be from ‘The Illustrated London News’, 6 December 1851. The simpler print is from an unknown newspaper but the adjacent cutting is hand dated 1827. The Tyrolese Minstrels toured widely and were well respected.
