Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The first two scrapbooks (the two with strips of tape across the spine) contain large photos of famous actors, actresses, playwrights, and producers of the time. The two Powers Opera House Scrapbooks contain clippings from a specific production's program followed by the Grand Rapids Press's review of that play. There are occasional photos of the actors and actresses involved and ticket stubs in both of these scrapbooks. The last two scrapbooks are labeled on the first page as "Photographic Art Studies," which contain large professional headshots of different people in theater at the time.
