George Tustin was a professional stage speciality (including top boot dancing – ie. Hungarian-style dancing) dancer and comedian. He was also a clog dancer and included this in his act on occasion.
By 1897 he was running the ” Tustin Troupe of International Troupe of Vocalists and Dancers”.
He was a judge at the the World Clog Championships in Bow, London 1898, having apparently been recruited as such at the last minute.
