Description
OFFERING a circa 1960 SOUVENIR PROGRAM FOR LERNER & LOEWE'S "MY FAIR LADY"SEE VIEWS ABOVE
UNDATED, BUT AFTER SOME RESEARCH I'VE DETERMINED THAT THIS IS FROM ONE OF THE FIRST (if not THE first) ROAD TOUR COMPANY OF "MY FAIR LADY" CIRCA 1960
THERE IS AN OBSCURE NOTE ON THE TITLE PAGE THAT SAYS
"Adapted from (George) Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion"
"Produced on the Screen by Gabriel Pascal"
THIS DOES NOT REFER TO THE 1964 MOVIE WITH REX HARRISON and AUDREY HEPBURN, BUT THE 1938 BLACK & WHITE BRITISH MOVIE STARRING LESLIE HOWARD and WENDY HILLER, WHEN PASCAL WAS THE PRODUCER
STARRING MICHAEL EVANS AND CAROLINE DIXON
ALSO STARRING CHARLES VICTOR AND HUGH DEMPSTER
BIOGRAPHIES OF LERNER AND LOEWE WITH PICTURES
CENTERFOLD HAS TWELVE SCENES FROM THE SHOW, PLUS SIX MORE TOWARDS THE END OF THE BOOKLET
