About the Item

Original old poster of the Chemins de fer de l'Est promoting travel in Switzerland, illustrated by E. Bourgeois. Eugène Victor Bourgeois (1855 - 1909) was a French painter, illustrator and poster artist. Self-taught painter, Eugene Victor Bourgeois began at the Salon of 1874. He exhibited there in 1880, as well as at the Salon des artistes français in 1881 where he obtained a medal of honor that year, then a 3rd class medal in 18851. He won a bronze medal at the Universal Exhibition of 1889 and at the one of 1900. The Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Est was a limited company created in 1845 under the name Compagnie du chemin de fer de Paris à Strasbourg. The name was changed in 1854 after other companies were bought out and new concessions were obtained. It was one of the six major French railroad companies nationalized on January 1, 1938 to form the Société nationale des chemins de fer français.

  • Circa 1900 Original poster for the Tillier dance Troup at the Palais de Glace
    Located in PARIS, FR
    The girl who has entered the theatrical profession as a child can be depended upon to lead a clean life when she grows up. She is far, far safer than the girl who enters the profession after childhood.' So wrote John Tiller, whose theatrical school produced the dancing ladies who starred in the original 'Pony Ballet' and whose troupes of 'Tiller Girls' were in great demand for shows not only in London but in Paris, Amsterdam, Turin, and New York. He and Mrs. Tiller began training youngsters at the age of nine. In the schools in London and Manchester, the girls had regular academic studies as well as dancing and were placed in Christmas pantomimes when still children. When they grew up, they were given jobs in various Tiller troupes (each managed by a mature woman who watched out for them)... [This lithograph]... was intended for all of the Tiller Troupe performances. The black type at the bottom was surprinted later to indicate, in this instance, their appearance at the Palais de Glace...
