Dimensions: 7\" x 9.5\"Original antique 16-page Broadway theatre program booklet for the historic Hudson Theatre (New York City) for the week of December 5, 1932. Published by the New York Theatre Program Corporation on Wooster Street, this Depression-era document showcases an exquisite Art Deco cover design featuring a stylized theatrical mask. The production for this specific week was Frank Craven\'s comedy \"That\'s Gratitude,\" starring J. C. Nugent, Maida Reade, and Alan Bunce.
The interior serves as a spectacular cultural time capsule of 1930s high society. Most notably, it features a prominent full-page biographical feature titled \"Who was Who\" dedicated to Georgie Drew Barrymore (mother of Ethel, Lionel, and John Barrymore), alongside a matching historical essay on Mrs. Leslie Carter and David Belasco. The publication is highly prized for its complete, pristine vintage advertisements, concluding with a magnificent, full-page color holiday advertisement on the back cover for Lucky Strike Cigarettes (\"It\'s Toasted\") showing their 1932 Christmas gift tin box, plus an internal full-page ad layout for Camel Cigarettes.
