Strauss arrived in San Francisco in 1850, just after gold was discovered there. Strauss decided to make tough trousess to sell to the gold miners. The first pair was made of tent canvas, then strong cotton was imported from France. This cotton was called serge de Nimes in French, and nowadays we call it ‘denim'(de Nimes). The denim was dyed blue witk indigo. In 1873 copper rivets were added fo the jeans. Strauss wanted fo make the pockets stronger because the miners used to fill them with pieces of rock! The company still makes Levis today. The first Lee Rider jeans were made in 1924, and the first Wranglers in 1947. Until the 1930s jeans were rarely seen east of the Mississippi river. Hollywood ‘westerns made jeans popular. Cowboys wore them in the films, and film stars wore ther outside the studios, Atone time jeans were seen as a sign of rebellion against authority. They were worn by stars like James Dezn and Marlon Brando, then by the student revolutionaries of the 1960s. Alex Madsen, a fashion writer, said, ‘Jeans were not only clothes; they were clothes-language, instant and eloquent symbols of brotherhood.’ Jeans represented freedom, Nowadays jeans are classless. They are wom by everyone, young and old, but not all styles of jeans are fashionable, What makes jeans fashionable?

Tania Was giver the job of sorting everything out. The theatre was dark now. The last production, a mystery thriller, had finished, Tania spent two days looking through the old boxes and suitcases, pulling out dusty old costumes that hads’t been used for years. Until the 1960s the theatre had had its own company of actors, and, produced its own plays, That had becomne (oo expensive, and although the theatre had been able o stay open, the plays had been performed by touring companies, and sometimes by local amateur groups. Tania had to throw away most of the things, ‘They were too ald and 100 dirty even to give away. twas late in the afternoon when she found the necklace.

These are the books for 1891-92, the same year that old Sir Percy played Hamlet 1c." said Tania. She looked quickly through the book. Here vou are: Hamlet, 4th October to 27th October: then they ‘sent straight on to Macbeth wo days later, How did they learn Ine words?” It cant have been too difficult, said Simon. ‘I guess old Sir Perey must have played Hamlet two or three times a year for wenty years, Iwas his most famous role.” Fania started laughing. “They had to buy him a new costume.

The necklace was made of solid gald, and ‘was said ¢o date from the eleventh century."This means. that it was already 300 years old in Shakespeare's time, ‘Traditionally, it was worn by Shakespeare in the role of the ghost of Hamler’s father, which he is supposed to have played in the first production. (ook a long time to explain the story to Miss Grimwald. Tania discovered from the records that the necklace had belonged to the theatre, rather than to Sir Percival. When the story appeared in the newspapers, they received an offer of €3,000,000 for the necklace from an American museum, When Miss Grimwald asked for time to think, the offer was doubled. The Theatre Royal's fuiure was secure a last. Two months later, at the Grand Reapening, Tania and Simon were the guests of honour. The portrait of old Sir Percival had been moved into the lobby.
