| 1851-1899 | |
Van Amburgh's Benefit and last appearance but one, on Friday evening, June 30th, on which occasion (and for the only time) he will perform a feat never before attempted by any other man in the world! Taking into the lion's den a bucket of warm blood! Fresh from a bullock, and after bathing his hands, arms and face in the blood, he will thrust them into the lion's mouth. This is a modern facsimile. The location of the original playbill is not known. Sheffield Local Studies Library: MP 276 (d) VL. |
