About this printable

Old-fashioned entertainment for your miniature town: playbills for a drama, a concert and a magic lantern show, a Royal Theatre sign and two small cards for the mantelpiece.

Each piece is sized from a real-world object (a shop sign, an A2 poster, a menu board) and converted to miniature size, so it looks right beside furniture of the same scale. Text is checked for legibility at every scale; scales where it would print too small are not offered.
