This is an original 1924 halftone print of a stage set for the shows
The Dover Road, The Tragedy of Nan, and
The Rivals put on by the Players of Providence. The caption writes, "Mr. Joseph W. Spranger, who designed the setting for
Dover Road, created a charming stage picture with this old English interior.
The Tragedy of Nan and
The Rivals were the work of Mr. Henry Ames Barker. His use of drapes in the setting for the latter play should furnish ideas and inspiration for other groups, unable to handle complicated sets."
