A number of these are in color. We have particularly stressed pictures suitable for schools, churches and general audiences, but in addition have added a number of programs which will appeal more to mature groups. Pictures marked (*) have been approved by THE NATIONAL BOARD OF REVIEW and/or THE LEGION OF DECENCY as partic- ularly suited for Family, Church or School presentation.

Finding aid created in 2006. Revised and expanded in 2008. Copyright © 2006-2008 Brooklyn Public Library. All rights reserved. Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.

  • (1875-1966) College Professor, Coal Mine Manager, and Medal of Honor Recipient
    Did You Know That...? Volume 3 Snapshots FRANK ANDERS (1875-1966) College Professor, Coal Mine Manager, and Medal of Honor Recipient One of the first white children born in what is now North Dakota attended a reception in the White House given by President John F. Kennedy on May 2, 1963. During those 88 years, Frank Anders received the Medal of Honor for his bravery during the Spanish- American War, taught mathematics at the North Dakota Agricultural College (now NDSU), served as Fargo’s city engineer, managed a coal mine in Zap, and was construction engineer of the commission in charge of the building of the new state capitol in Bismarck. JOHN BAER (1886-1970) Famous Cartoonist & Youngest Man Ever Elected to Congress From ND The youngest person ever elected to the U.S. Congress from North Dakota later became a famous political cartoonist. John Baer began his cartoon drawing with the Nonpartisan Leader newspaper and is given some of the credit for the rapid growth of the Nonpartisan League (NPL) in North Dakota. After he was defeated for reelection to Congress in 1921, Baer “rose to become America’s most widely known labor cartoonist.” One of his cartoons inspired Franklin Roosevelt to name his 1932 Presidential campaign slogan the “New Deal.” NORVAL BAPTIE (1879-1966) Nation’s Greatest All-Around Skater North Dakota was the home of the greatest all-around ice skater of the early twentieth century and, perhaps, of all time. Norval Baptie won approximately 5000 ice skating races in the 25 years he competed, and held 10 professional speed records.
