A number of photographic cards by Baron and De Marney were issued to commemorate
the 1951 ballet Pineapple Poll, which uses Sullivan’s
music arranged by Sir Charles Mackerras. These cards are now difficult to
find, having perhaps been largely absorbed by the world of ballet.
Cards of individual artistes.
