Altho ugh the Victorian era historically ended in 1901, its influence was felt for many years after. This book encompasses what we consider to be the golden age of celluloid collectibles. the period of 1885 - 19 15 . Queen Victoria came to the throne in 1837, and by 1861 when her husband, Prince Consort Albert died , the British Empire had more than doubled in size. The Victorian era ( 1837 - 1901 ) was a time of modesty and self-righteousness not only in Great Britain but in the United States as well . Victoria ruled for 63 years and due to this long reign her name was given to this age.
