Title
Empire Palace Theatre Programme page
Description
Taken from a scrapbook donated to Edinburgh City Council Museums, the view is of a page from a Edinburgh Empire Theatre programme. The page lists the content of the programme the page would have come from. The text is the colour green and dates the programme to 1897. The text reads' Grand University Night in Honour of the Opening of the M'ewan Hall.
As the page has been part of a scrapbook, there is also a Celtic style picture of a lady and child. At the bottom left you can see a picture of the 'Great Tun of Heidelburg'.
