The chorus-line all-girl revue shows at the Frontier Village during the 100 day run of the Oregon Centennial Exposition. This re-created town from the 1870’s Old West featured the Golden Nugget dance hall & saloon as well as livery stable church post office and hotel and proved to be the most successful attraction. Mossman’s Can-Can girls put on daily shows and held dances where the daringly dressed women would dance with visitors and hired actors. The 1859-1959 Centennial Exposition lasted from June 10 to Sept. 17 on 65 acres along the Columbia River formerly Vanport wiped away in the tragic 1948 flood and also featured a Gayway Amusement Park Garden of Tomorrow & Adventureland. The photos depict not only Mossman’s Can-Can girl revue but also steam locomotives Modernist sculptures and murals by Louis Bunce and other Oregon artists as well as photos of the Mid-Century Modern Lumber Industry Pavilion and the striking Hall of Religious History in the Garden of Tomorrow which featured murals of Carl Morris. Also shown are neon sculptures the filled arena showing the opening ceremonies which featured actor Raymond Burr as master of ceremonies the Nelson Picket Dancers the Golden Nugget and Frontier Trading Post from the air and more.

Photos included here depict as well the Nelson Pickett Dancers The Glenns “originating new tricks in a dancing mood;†The Carsony Brothers; the Earl Mossman Girls featuring models from the Gloria LaVonne modeling agency; along with Walter Blacke Jacqueline Clark Earl Mossman’s Dolls for “Delta Dome†and more.

One photo includes dinner guests of Miracle Oxygen which featured the editor of The Oregonian Dick Nokes Paul Hauron stage feature writer the Todds and others. Of additional interest are the photos of Mossman showing off his scrapbook filled with images from his long career as well as images while convalescing with his bevy of beauties in the Shriner’s Hospital in Portland OR. Mossman 1894-1976 was an Oregon native and grandson of Isaac Mossman who had fought in the 1855-1856 Indian Wars rode with the Washington Territory’s Pony Express out of Walla Walla and was the first Washington Territorial librarian in 1870. Earl Mossman began running away from home as a young boy to perform in taverns and saloons in downtown Portland later worked for Pacific Power & Light Co. as an office boy and in 1913 after marrying his childhood sweetheart Catherine Groos launched his career on the Vaudeville Circuit. He initially played with the Basco Comedy Co. and later with Connie & Mack’s and the Bert Levy Circuit. Walter Winchell coined him as the “Beau Brummel of Broadway†during the 1920’s and by the 1930’s was performing with Norma Lawton in Broadway productions such as “The Dancing Producer†and performed with his partner Ray Vance at the Lotus Isle Amusement Park and the Peacock Ballroom. He would marry five different times performed at civic activities Rose Festivals and beauty pageants across the Pacific Northwest.Over half the photographs in this collection were shot by Allen J. De Lay photographer with The Oregonian from 1947 until the newspaper strike of 1960 who was not only an extraordinary photographer but also musician and competitive swimmer. He is perhaps best remembered for his photographs of the darker seamier side of Portland in the post-World War II era. Other Oregon photographers represented include Maxwell Allara Paul Blixt Kirk Braun Bill Gray Hodge Kennell-Ellis Verne Lewis Alfred Monner Dick Slater Don Thompson Donald Wilson and others. Of particular interest are noted theatrical photographers such as Bruno in Hollywood and James J. Kriegsmann 1909-1994 celebrity & theatrical photographer from 1929 to the 1980’s.

1910List3655New York / Chicago / London: M. Witmark & Sons 1910. Folio sheet music 13 ½ x 10 ½ inches. Color pictorial cover. Light wear and minor creasing to edges; very good overall. A lively Irish-themed novelty song promoted as “Emma Carus’ Great Irish Song Hit†issued by the major popular music publisher M. Witmark & Sons. The cover illustration shows Carus dancing before a marching crowd carrying a banner reading “Home Rule†evoking the Irish nationalist movement then a prominent political issue both in Ireland and among Irish-American communities. Emma Carus 1879–1927 was a well-known American vaudeville performer and comic singer who appeared widely in theaters and variety shows during the early twentieth century. Born in New York she became a popular stage personality through novelty songs and character performances often introducing new numbers that were quickly issued in sheet music by publishers such as Witmark. The present piece with lyrics by Bob Harty and music by Ernest Breuer reflects the continuing popularity of Irish-themed songs in American vaudeville and popular music during the period when political themes such as Irish Home Rule frequently appeared in theatrical songs and stage sketches aimed at Irish-American audiences. We find a copy with a variant cover in commerce but not this design. M. Witmark & Sons unknown
