"Stanelli" (real name Edward de Groot b.1896, Dublin; d.1961) had a successful career as a musician and comedian into adulthood. This is a postcard (c.1905) which I think may have been sold at one of Stanelli's concerts. Sent to Mrs Waddelow, 119 Newmarket Road, Cambridge:
"Dr Mother,
Went to hear Stanelli last night on the Pier. His playing is beautiful. He is only 9 years old. Glorious weather. Yours Tom."
