A female drummer is the unusual subject here: this 1898 lithograph advertises Blaney's latest musical comedy, *A Female Drummer*, with the line "Chase that away boy" printed on the sheet. The H.C. Miner Litho. Co. of New York produced it, and the poster names managers Blaney and Vance, the theatrical partnership behind the production. Its playful, eye-catching style reflects the light comic musicals that drew audiences to American theaters in the late 1890s.
