Description	Pictorial poster advertising THE TWO HUSSARS, "a romantic story of the great Crimean War."
Notes	Would probably have been cut up into three separate advertisements, as each segment has details of the title and authors and is therefore complete in itself
	No theatre or date is mentioned on the poster, but the play was written in 1894.
	Illustrated with three scenes from the play, in colour: a fight; hussars in action (captioned "I'll make them Russians run!!"); and hussars in the trenches, showing their slightly tattered British flag (captioned "In the trenches.")
