About this photograph
This photograph shows Signor Trovato, billed as the Texas Kid, who performed at the Orpheum theater in San Francisco in 1910. The record attributes the image to Berger and dates it to July of that year.
The archive provides no further information about Trovato's act, repertoire, or background. The Orpheum theaters were a significant vaudeville circuit, but the record does not elaborate on the venue or the performer's engagement there.
The photograph was digitised through California Revealed, a statewide programme that makes material from California libraries, archives, museums and historical societies publicly available online. Items entering the archive this way come from many separate local institutions across the state.
Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
