DETAILS: The oversized fourteen page program measures 8 1/8" X 10 1/4" inches and includes full production credits, cast list, incidental musical numbers and wonderful vintage advertising, but no cast photos or bios ..... CONDITION: (Please Note!) The center page has separated from the staples and shows some paper loss, there are seam splits above and below the staples, minor rust marks at the staples and moderate edge wear. The page opposite the title page has been removed and is missing. Despite these flaws, this rare program will make a wonderful addition to the collection of any musical theatre aficionado or historian.
