EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Minnie Duncan, one half of the renowned music hall double act Duncan and Godfrey, in her characteristic coster attire from around 1910. Minnie wears a long black skirt, a full-length white apron, and a shawl draped over her shoulders, adding to her authentic East End look. The pièce de résistance of her ensemble is the large hat adorned with luxurious ostrich feathers, which sits atop her head at a jaunty angle. With her hands on her hips and a confident expression, Minnie exudes an air of charm and charisma that made her and her partner, Arthur Godfrey, a beloved duo on the music hall stage. Their act, which included comic sketches and traditional music, was a favorite among audiences during the early 20th century. Minnie's captivating presence and unique style continue to intrigue us today, making this photograph a fascinating glimpse into the history of music hall entertainment.
