Haverly was an American theatre manager and promoter known for his production of "minstrel shows" a racist form of theatrical entertainment wherein white performers donned blackface makeup and portrayed skits and characters which relied on offensive stereotypes. Haverly's troupe was noted for its impressive size and scope involving forty to one hundred different performers and lavish production value. The Mastodon Minstrels drew comparison to P.T. Barnum and other successful circuses of the day for their use of music dance acrobatics and burlesque. One notable portrait at the center of the card shows the troupe's manager Charles Frohman who would go on to become a prolific producer of American theatre and is best remembered for producing J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up. Both top corners worn and rounded. Small 1/4" tear to mount at bottom edge not affecting image.

2020006974London U.K.: Omnibus Press 2020. Book. New. Trade Paperback. Signed by Authors. 1st Edition. Trade Paperback - 1st. Print - NEW - Signed by Steve Howe on bookplate attached to ffep - Renowned guitarist Steve Howe tells his own story in his own words often unflinchingly as he recounts times of triumph and torment amidst the cream of the UK's prog rock bands. Best known for his work with Yes a group prone to sudden upheavals and AOR supergroup Asia Steve Howe's passage through these and other bands is a roller-coaster ride of constant touring tense recording sessions and frequent trips to all corners of the globe. A workaholic he soon realised that the temptations of the rock 'n' roll lifestyle weren't for him and instead dedicated his life to excellence in musicianship. Born in North London in 1947 Steve got his first guitar at the age of 12 and thereafter devoted himself passionately to mastering its intricacies. After spells in psychedelic bands of the late sixties he was invited to join Yes in 1970 thus finding himself in a spotlight that shines to this day. In the meantime he raised a family adopted vegetarianism as a lifestyle and watched as many of his peers succumbed to the impulses he managed to avoid. As well as Yes and Asia Steve has led bands of his own released numerous solo recordings in many different musical styles and amassed a legendary collection of priceless stringed instruments.

73847A collection of nearly 150 shooting scripts used by character actor Allan John Melvin 1923-2008 who appeared in hundreds of television episodes from the 1950s to the early '90s often in recurring roles on various series. He is best known for his recurring role as Alice's boyfriend Sam the Butcher on The Brady Bunch and as Archie Bunker's friend Barney Hefner on both All in the Family and Archie Bunker's Place. Melvin also portrayed various characters on The Andy Griffith Show real estate salesman Pete Dudley in My Favorite Martian Corporal Henshaw on The Phil Silvers Show and Sergeant Hacker on Gomer Pyle.<br/><br/>Born in Kansas City Missouri he attended Columbia University and did some stage work before he broke into television with the role of Corporal Steve Henshaw on the popular The Phil Silvers Show program. "He was proudest of that show. I think the camaraderie of all those guys made it such a pleasant way to work. They were so relaxed" his wife Amalia told the Associated Press in 2008.<br/><br/>Melvin had a long and prosperous acting career but was often cast in the role of slightly loud and abrasive but friendly supporting characters and occasionally as the tough guy. In addition to television he did voice over work providing the voices of cartoon characters such as Magilla Gorilla. Some of his most prolific work was in television commercials for products as diverse as Kellogg's Sugar Frosted Flakes and Remington electric razors. Among the scripts in this collection are five for The Brady Bunch including an episode which features Sam helping Alice solve the Brady family's high telephone bill problem with the addition of a pay telephone like the one in his butcher shop.<br/><br/>The bulk of the scripts in this collection are for the popular television series All in the Family 1971-1979 and its reprisal Archie Bunker's Place 1979-1983. In both series Melvin played Barney Hefner Archie Bunker's neighbor and best friend. According to Smithsonian Magazine the top-rated sitcom represented "a turning point for its engagement with topical controversial themes such as race relations homosexuality and feminism - an effort to reach baby boomer audiences - and for representing the kind of ordinary working people who had thus far been invisible on screen." Among the scripts in this collection is the episode for "The Family Next Door" with Archie Bunker being forced to let go of old prejudices when he learns his wife Edith rented out the house next door to a black family. For an episode entitled "Archie's Dog Day Afternoon" five copies of the script are present from the table draft to the final draft showing the process of television writing. A spring binder imprinted with Melvin's name and Archie's Bunker's Place contains a confidential cast and crew list with addresses and telephone numbers.<br/><br/>The collection also includes copies of scripts Melvin considered and roles he lost. Among them is the March 1965 copy of the script for the stage production of Neil Simon's The Odd Couple. There are pencil markings around the lines for the character Speed the gruff and sarcastic poker buddy which was ultimately played by Paul Dooley.<br/><br/>All of the scripts are three-hole punched. With the exception of the All in the Family and Archie Bunker's Place scripts most are bound with brads. The collection also includes more than 1000 pages of multicolor script pages for episodes of Archie Bunker's Place likely script changes which have not been paired with their scripts. Overall the material is in very good condition. The collection is housed in five standard file boxes. A detailed Excel spreadsheet listing each of the scripts is available upon request. unknown books
