A just view of the British stage, or, Three heads are better than one scene Newgate by M D-V-to. [graphic]

The stage of a theatre, with halters suspended over three managers of theatres; the labels issuing from the mouths of these persons have characteristic words. Wilks dangles Punch. The Laureat Cibber dangles Harlequin and invokes the Muses. Booth letting down the image of Jack Hall basphems: "Ha this will do G-d D- me". On the table before the speakers is a pamphlet with a print of Jack Shepard. Ben Jonson's ghost, holding a lit candle, rises to the stage on the left. In Horace Walpole's catalog, this print is referred to as "Booth, Wilks and Cibber contriving a pantomime, a satire on farces."
