THEATER MEMORABILIA – EXTREMELY RARE COLLECTOR’S ITEM! Unique early 20th‑century hand‑drawn fan – dated 1909

An exceptional piece of theater history: an original handmade folding fan from the early 1900s, created as a personal keepsake for a theater‑goer or performer.

Few sections features charming, pencil drawed music notes.

The fan is dated 1913 and originates from Nagybánya (today Baia Mare), a historic town in Transylvania, formerly part of Hungary.

The surface is filled with personal dedications, proverbs, and witty sayings written by people connected to the theater world.

The inscriptions include both Hungarian and German names and texts, suggesting it belonged to someone within the Transylvanian Saxon (Siebenbürger Sachsen) community.

This is a one‑of‑a‑kind historical artifact—a rare survivor of early 20th‑century Central European theater culture.

Perfect for collectors of theater memorabilia, ethnographic items, or Transylvanian history.
