This poster advertised the variety programme at London's Palladium Theatre for the week commencing 11th August 1913. It notes the proximity of the theatre to the Oxford Circus tube station and the 'Central London and Bakerloo tubes' and, given the time of year, draws attention to the 'Ozonair Installation and sliding roof' which make the theatre 'delightfully cool'.

The programme starred Harry Lauder, and Harry Relph - otherwise known as Little Tich - and an assortment of supporting acts from a violinist to a cat act, a dancing act, equilibrists, the sketch 'A Sister to Assist'er' performed by Fred Emney and Sydney Fairbrother, and the popular 'Jolly Little Dutch Girl' May Moore Duprez.
