Programme from the Palace Theatre in Hull for a night of variety entertainment during the week of 27 July 1953 starring the comedian Frankie Howerd. Already a star as he was given top billing, the bill also featured Bobbie Kimber the trans/drag ventriloquist, Derrick Rosaire and his wonder horse Tony, and Max Geldray, the electronic harmonica player who was a regular on The Goon Show. The eight-page 5” by 7.5” programme is in fair condition with loose pages, staining from absent rusty staples and annotations on the front cover. Also on the bill were Jill Jill and Jill, the two Alfreros, Lee Young, Kim Peacock, Sunny Rogers, juggler Rita Martell and Madame Blanchie Moore.
