ARCH 5015
The High Priestess of Jollity & The Southern Singer brings together the complete recorded output of two early stars of the vaudeville stage: Clarice Vance and May Irwin.

This set presents these 21 recordings for the first time and tells the story of these two remarkable women. The package includes a 32-page, full-color booklet with biographical essays on each of women and a bounty of photographs and lush illustrations.
