<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Batman_2000, post: 211959, member: 481&quot;]I&#039;d appreciate your opinions... I recently acquired a bunch of cabinet cards, which included some theatre related ones. Some are named, but the two below are not (nothing on reverse). So, I took a punt on a wild google search that I don&#039;t remember, but it involved a combination of Newport (Wales), Lyceum (victorian theatre in Newport) and Musketeers (based on the costume in the second photo) and somehow came across H A Sainsbury:[ATTACH=full]62070[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]62071[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Photo of H A Saintsbury from The Sketch, 11 July 1900:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]62072[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Obviously the hair&#039;s different but I found a few other images where Saintsbury&#039;s hair is bordering on curly.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also found a newspaper review of Saintsbury acting in &quot;The Three Musketeers&quot; at Newport Lyceum in 1899.</p><p><br /></p><p>But maybe it&#039;s just wishful thinking on my part, since Saintsbury is quite a famous Victorian actor (he apparently mentored Charlie Chaplin) - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Arthur_Saintsbury" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Arthur_Saintsbury" rel="nofollow">more about him here</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any thoughts?
