p_crawleyd.jpgIt is surprising that so little is known about this performer considering the large number of items located. All that can presently (February 2025) be gleaned about Dan Crawley [Daniel Crowley] from sheet music covers and by Internet searching is that he was a music hall performer & dancer born in Cork.
He has been featured on 35 works published between 1893 and 1912.
His portrait on the left is taken from a signed postcard.
