Production
This object is a reprint of a 1927 dyeline print. It is difficult to say when and why it was made. We can tell it is was some time after the original dyeline was made because the poor condition of the original (tears etc.) is reproduced in this copy. The date must be before 1968 as this was the year the donor salvaged the object from a skip outside the hotel.
