1971396805East Hampton New York 1971. Unbound. Near Fine. Broadside. Illustrated by Isadore Seltzer. Measuring 11" x 17". Overall very good or better with some toning and pins holes at the corners. Poster for two performances at the Old Post Office Theatre in on Newtown Lane in East Hampton New York co-owned by photographer Ken Robbins who used the upstairs as his first dark room. The theatre specialized in avant-garde plays by the likes of Harold Pinter Terrance McNally Sam Shepard Eugene Ionesco Joe Orton Rochelle Owens Boris Vian Leonard Melfi and others. Drama apparently did not pay the bills so the theatre put the kibosh on live performance after just two seasons in favor of art house films. It was likely that few of these posters were made for each performance and even less that have survived. unknown
