| Description Of Item | Clipped article from the Daily Mail in a scrapbook from the collection of John Ritchie relating to the committee of the Prussian Landtag and its prohibitions on Berlin theatres from allowing women to perform naked or almost naked. A story of English women performers are contrasted in their refusal to perform in ‘scanty’ costumes, and the proliferation of ‘immoral songs’ through gramophone records is cited as a continuation of ‘moral evil in Prussia’. |
