The Victorian Web is a valuable internet resource created by George P. Landow, a professor at Brown University.
There are a couple of short articles about toy theatre by Philip V. Allingham. Pictured on the right, Allingham is a contributing editor to The Victorian Web. He has written extensively about Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy.
The first article, The Toy Theatre and Charles Dickens, is about Dickens' life long interest in juvenile drama. It discusses his own childhood productions and his efforts to interest his son in toy theatre.
The second short piece, Victorian Toy Theatres, briefly discusses the history and publishers of toy theaters.
