Amatørteater - amatøroptagelse, ca. 1910. Ukendt fotograf. Kilde: RODS.
Fotografen er desværre ukendt, evt. blindstempel skåret af. Fra en revy eller noget, med orkestergrav i forgrunden. 20 kvinder klædt i forskellige dragter - bestemte erhverv, de to første på hver side er ikke hekse med riskoste, men skorstensfejere. Så er der to gange "brandmænd", og de midterste ved jeg ikke. Omkring 1920? Samling avk.

Lyt til Harald Kollings stemme HER. Det er en meget spændende digitalisering af dansk kulturarv, de allerførste danske lydoptagelser fra 1889-1897. Første gang overhovedet, at man kan lytte til det danske sprog. Jeg har nogle billeder på min hjemmeside herunder af skuespilleren på Folketeatret, Harald Kolling, som var i familie med Kollingfamilien (guldsmed) i Rønne og Kofoed-Hansen i Hasle. Hans stemme kan man høre på en meget fin og velkomponeret hjemmeside, der hedder Ruben-samlingen, efter "ophavsmanden" generalkonsul Gottfried Ruben som optog lyden.
Listen to Harald Kolling's voice  HER. It is a very exciting digitization of Danish cultural heritage, the very first Danish audio recordings from 1889-1897. The first time at all that you can listen to the Danish language. I have some pictures on my website including this actor at Folketeatret, Harald Kolling, who was in family with the Kolling family (goldsmith) in Rønne and Kofoed-Hansen in Hasle.
His voice can be heard on a very fine and well-composed website called the Ruben collection, after the "originator" General Consul Gottfried Ruben who recorded the sound.
Harald Kolling, Folketeatret. Fætter (tror jeg) til guldsmed Kolling i Rønne. Billedet må være ret tidligt, jeg har en teori om, at de allerførste "papirfotografer" overtog dageurreotypisternes og vitrotypisternes mønstrede klæde, der var lagt over en gueridon et lille søjlebord - som vi ser på billedet herover. BØA 1976-13 (begge portrætter).

Group of nine, near mint, cdvs of Harald Colling (1835-1904) (aka Johan Frederik Harald Colling or Kolling) a noted Danish comic actor of the 19th century who was the first private actor to receive the Knight's Cross. All the cdv's bear a Peter Most, 22 Ostergade, Copenhagen backmark. Colling was born in Copenhagen. He began his career as an amateur actor while he was a tobaccospinner.
The director of the People's Theater, Hans Wilhelm Lange, saw him perform and signed him to a contract with the People's Theater.
He had a small role in the Theater's September 18, 1857 opening performance, but this was the start of more than 450 characters he would play throughout his career. He was a hit with the Copenhagen bourgeoisie. Slight of build Colling was an excellent character actor. His most noted roles included the character Charles Sapeur (the editor) in "Copy Editor." Redaktionssekretæren)
He played one season (1870-71) at the Royal Theater, but missed performing every night, and the following season returned to the Peoples Theater and remained one of their best (if not, the best) comedians.
His last performance was on Sept. 14, 1901. He died three years later. He was the first private theater actor who received the Knight's Cross.
All these cdv's were for roles he had at the Peoples Theater.

[Peter Most (aka Carl Peter Herman Most (1826-1900) was a Danish photographer]. These photographs came from a Danish cdv album with most of the cdv's dating 1869, so I assume that is also the time period for these cdvs (thus making him in his mid-30s when these were taken).
