Margate’s Leslie Fullers Ped’lers summer season at the Clifton Concert Hall, Cliftonville.
These summer season concerts started in 1919 and continued into the mid 1930’s when Leslie’s film career took off. He revived the concert parties in 1946 but he died suddenly in 1948.

Observations
-
Cast list is for the 1925 Ped’lers but the photo is of the 1923 Ped’ler which I don’t have a cast list for. Many of the same arstistes appear year after year with Leslie each summer season.

The advertistment is from the local paper for Aug 1929.
