Good Lord, Cooke looks like a giant here! And the play had songs – a musical Frankenstein in 1823!
Thanks for posting this.

I would love to be able to travel back to 1823 in order to see this production. It sounds like something else.
One of the reasons I love this illustration is because Cooke looks so massive.
