we could just look at certain states in Australia, but just for
the time being, let's just look at one article, which looks interesting.
It says, "Sarah Bernhardt, Australasian Tour, contract by Marconigram."
Now, that sounds interesting.
"Sarah Bernhardt, contract by Marconigram."
It's the article tells us that, the famous Australian manager J.T.
Williamson, signed a contract with her while he was on-board ship,
and she was somewhere else, but it was all done by Marconigram, i. e. by telegram.
Now, this is of course, very interesting for us.
This is a very good resource that also gives you books about her.
So these could also be, it also gives you pictures, photos.
So let's have a look and
see what other information we can find about Sarah Bernhardt.
For instance, she was famous for her costumes, and her wardrobe.
So let's type in "wardrobe", and search for that.
Yes, here we have 600 and 607 articles about her wardrobe, so
let's look at, see what was in the Wagga Wagga Express in 1890.
Here we have it, "Sarah Bernhardt's wardrobe, Bernhardt has the most expensive wardrobe
of any actress of the present day, or of any, who trod the boards before her.
She invents all her own dresses.
No matter what the fashion may be, she has it, and when in London, has been known to
buy in one afternoon at Regent Street, a dozen to 20 new hats and bonnets."
And so it goes on telling us, how much money she spends on her wardrobe.
So, let's, that interests us as well, so we'll save that as well, with our,
as a PDF, and continue our search.
Another very useful resource are genealogical websites.
Now, these contain lots of information about people, birth dates, and so on.
But also their movements, they contain often shipping records, and
we can use them to track the movement of actors and
performers, as they moved around the world.
Now, the largest of these is called ancestery.com.
Let's type in the name, of an actor-manager, I'm interested in.
He is called "Maurice Bandmann", and he was born around 1872,
but you don't need to actually, include that date, and let's just see.
