Burlesque, the 1946 - 1948 Arthur Hopkins musical stage play production revival (written by George Manker Watters & Arthur Hopkins) starring Bert Lahr, Jean Parker, Jerri Blanchard, Bobby Barry, Kay Buckley, and Fay McKenzie
Important Added Info: Note that this playbill has been personally autographed (signed) by SEVENTEEN people: Bobby Berry, Jean Parker, Eleanor Prentiss, Bert Lahr, Jerri Blanchard, Ruth Maitland, Kay Buckley, Joyce Mathews, Millicent Roy, Irene Allarie, Ronnie Rogers, Carolyn Boyce, Joan Andree, Darin Jennings, Jane Gilmour, Patricia Leslie, AND Santo Scudi!

Note that this is one of a wonderful collection of 91 items that were assembled by a collector decades ago, mostly from RR Auctions, which has auctioned signed items since 1976. The person who purchased these items passed away several years ago, and while he did not save most of the certificates of authenticity he received when he bought these signed items, almost all were purchased between the late 1970s and the early 1990s, and we think it is extremely likely that the autograph on this item is genuine.

As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes.

Condition: good to very good. The autographs were signed with fountain pens, and there are some ink smudges near the autographs on both the cover and the "cast of characters" page, which has most of the autographs on it. The person who saw the play stapled their ticket stub to the front cover, and they also stapled it to the first interior page (but of course, that staple could be easily removed).
