    Description

    Here is an original 1930 program (Playbill) from the HANNA THEATRE for the play called,
    "Bird in Hand" written by John Drinkwater.
    This vintage program features advertising of several Broadway Hits including a large
    advertisement for the "current hit" - ANIMAL CRACKERS - with The Marx Brothers.
    This program is in excellent condition for being over 90 years of age.  All 34 pages are held tight to the spine.
    The various advertising within this playbill is fascinating including RCA Radiolas priced between 8 and 3!!
    IMAGINE THAT - RCA "wooden cabinet" TUBE Radios for that kind of money in 1930!!!
    *** The average wage in 1930 for common labor was 45 CENTS per hour (add it up) -
    that's about 400 hours of labor
    ***
    There is other color advertising as well as the back cover
    .
