Английская Википедия:Boston Lyceum Bureau
The Boston Lyceum Bureau (est.1868) in Boston, Massachusetts, was a project of James Redpath and George L. Fall. Its office stood at no.36 Bromfield Street. "Through its agency, many ... lecturers and authors of celebrity have been introduced to American audiences,"[1][2] including Frederick Douglass, Mark Twain, and George MacDonald.
The partnership dissolved around 1874. Redpath continued briefly with the "Redpath Lyceum Bureau" which featured many of the same lecturers and performers as before. Eventually, other proprietors took over and the "Boston Lyceum Bureau" and the "Redpath Lyceum Bureau" expanded vigorously into the 20th century, with branches throughout the United States. [3][4]
