NOTE: Between the years 1905-1911 Vanity Fair magazine changed printers and printing processes several times. Thus, this original print was printed using the new (at the time) colour offset process by Bemrose Dalziel Ltd., Watford and London which has a dot pattern, unlike the stone lithographs prior to 1905 and after 1911— when the company returned to Vincent Brooks, Day & Son for their colour lithography.
