Price: $20.00

Publisher: No location stated, United States Army Special Service Division: circa 1942-43

Seller ID: 3414

Binding: soft cover

Condition: Good condition

There must have been many of these programs, but it's a bare bones publication with no pictures or art. And yet it tells a great story. Irving Berlin staged the entire show "This is The Army" which had a cast consisting of all soldier actors. It was a musical replete with an orchestra, vaudeville, original songs, and a ladies chorus. It opened on Broadway in the summer of 1942 for a four week run which turned into twelve weeks Eleanor Roosevelt liked it so much she saw it more than once. After that the show hit the "road" for Europe, the Far East, and the Pacific theatre of war. The last show...

Publisher: U.S.A., Compilation of Studios (see description): 2003 to 2005

Seller ID: 4132

Binding: Card cover

Condition: Very good

This has to be one of the best theater souvenirs ever. It's oversized at 12" square, has card pages, and pops with color and images that shine like firworks. There's not a lot of text, but every word is part of the fun. This was a theater tour which began December 10, 2003 and ended on May 1, 2005. I think this program came from the Clevelnd show in 2004. There were many people on both stage and behind it and also outside entities who worked on it too -- Walt Disney Pictures, Family CommunciationInc. for Mister Rogers footage, Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Paramou...

Price: $18.00

Publisher: Urbana, Illinois, American String Teachers Association: Year Unknown

Seller ID: 3199

Binding: Card cover

Condition: Good

ITEM # 3199 I had one of these years ago, so I recognized the partial front cover on this repaired booklet. It must have fallen apart so someone used what was viable of the front cover and made a sturdy new cover. I thought it was likely to have been a librarian, but there are no stamps showing any previous owners.The booklet is quite good, a reprint of two articles from The Music Quarterly Magazine. The text is tight and clean with just a couple points off a few pages at front. Booklet is illustrated nicely. [MUS. BX . 1 ]

Publisher: Washington D.C., Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System: 2010

Seller ID: 3950

Binding: Card cover

Condition: Fine condition

There's a lot of reasons to love this exhibition catalog. First of all, the text is in ENGLISH. Secondly, its an exhibition catalog replete with color photographs printed on coated paper. Then there's the fact that it's brand new and has pretty two-tone blue maps printed inside both covers. What's remarkable though is the art depicting fireworks from 1644 which had pyrotechnics for the King's Feast on Place de Palais in August, 1644 to the marriage of Napoleon I and the Archduchess Marie-Louise in 1810. The Booklet measures 8-1/4" x 10-1/2" and has 77 pages. The exhibition spanned October 11,...

Open up this issue of Rolling Stone and there's 1992 back again for another turn around the block.
