About this work
"Alice Nielsen's production of The Fortune Teller - Book by Harry B. Smith - Music by Victor Herbert - Direction: Milton & Sargent Aborn.", subcaptioned "The Drum Corps".
A 1905 poster for Victor Herbert's The Fortune Teller (1898) showing the women's drum corps. Alice Nielsen's production was the first production of the opera; this poster comes a bit late for the original run, and so presumably comes from a touring or repertoire production by her company.
